Two Pennies in a Fountain (Hills store)

Today I was in Fountain Hills, Arizona, a fancy, isolated little town at a store, and as I was leaving, I spotted two pennies on the floor by a coin machine. You know, one of those big green clunky contraptions that you pour your money in and something spits out. I have no idea. A sheet of paper to redeem somewhere? Dollar bills? Coins for the change that don't quite add up to a dollar? I don't know. I've never used one.

But I found these two pennies on the floor. Couldn't pour them in? I don't know. But duh. There are some lazy people out there.

Do Cats Bring Good Luck?

Two of my lucky charms and I took a walk today. First we saw this cat. She was staring at us so we stared right back. And as they say, "take a picture, it lasts longer." So I did.



We walked on and found this penny on the sidewalk.

We walked along a few more steps and found this one in the street.
