Guest Found Money -- My Grandson Found a Penny

Today my daughter and grandson came to stay for Christmas. When he got out of the car, he found (with Mom's help) a penny! He told me "and I'm keeping it!" Good for him! He knows me and those found coins!

Here he is showing it to me.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Guest Blog -- Famous Found Money!

Since I'm having a found money dry spell and my friend Lori, who lives in Maryland, told me about some pretty special found money, I asked her if she wanted to be a guest blogger. She said sure!

So, here's the picture and Lori's great description of this famous found money. Thanks, Lori!

Attached is THE photo showing the found money at Ben's Chili Bowl in SE DC - this is the same Ben's Chili Bowl where Bill Cosby and Obama dine on chili dogs and cheese fries. Now, I was quite surprised to go into the ladies room and find a penny! That's right -  one red cent! I have no idea what story that one penny could tell but decided to leave it there for someone else to enjoy and imagine about. Not sure, either, what it says about the economy but the fact that it was still there gives me some optimism that people aren't counting pennies as they once were!

And if you'd like to read more by Lori, check out her blog, Tales of a Summer with a 91 (Now 93!) Year Old, and Lori's eHow articles. Thanks again, Lori!
