indeed I will. the night before last I picked just ninety-six cents, four zincolns shy of my nightly target. I stayed out as late as I felt comfortable with, but came up short. then last night it rained, probably around 11pm, and there was just too much wetness, which hampers spotting coins on pavements, so my search was limited and I consequently found just a single quarter... but tonight I managed to pick $1.61, all well-scattered change, even though it rained around 7pm and lingered for an hour and a half, which spoiled my scheduled dog walking gig. but whatever, tonight was a good night despite the rain.  |

since it was t-storming, the dogs were likely freaked out, but they have plenty of space to roam around the outside of the house... and they're just as tired of summer as I am, after a block or two the pep in their step becomes noticeably less peppy... sometimes requires practically dragging them back to the house... cleaning up after them is no treat; I don't know what she's feeding them... personally, I think she has a 'diaper fetish', I call her a 'diaper-sniffer'... I think she misses being mom of a baby; cleaning up after her dogs is similar to changing a baby's diaper, as far as the mess itself, I don't want to get too descriptive of it cos it's nasty...
could be another wet day here, the remnants of TS Dolly has made it's way up to us and we have t-storms popping up all around, rain chance for today has gone from 40% to 50% to 60% to 70% to 80% currently, within 24 hours...

We may be getting some rain (If that hurricane keep moving up the West Coast) otherwise we are high and dry here in Phoenix.

our rainy season finally decided to show up this week, several weeks behind schedule, no doubt due to el niño.

Rain? What's that? We haven't seen any appreciable rain in our part of N Texas in almost 60 days! Very, very dry here.

hopefully it stays non-rainy for the rest of the night so I can hit all my usual areas and find some coins (and/or cash). I would like to put two rolls of zincolns and a roll of nickels into the bank bag tonight.

missed my target tonight by three zincolns, but in tonight's haul I picked a couple of nickels, which was enough to top-off a full roll. I put $3 into the bank bag tonight. cycle 22 sits at $103, $41 to go to achieve $5K. i really wish that someone would throw down some cash for me. Edited by MrPink2018

tonight I picked $1.36, all well-scattered change... after picking the first 3 coins-- a nice quarter, a nice nickel and a nice dime-- nearly everything else was trashed... roadrashed... I found two coin spills in two different parking lots: thirty-six zincolns, five nickels and three dimes total, for ninety-one cents, all trashed from being run over countless times... no matter; into the tubes they go, and off to the fiat bank at some point... I also picked a ten cent euro from Slovenia, 2019, and a ten cent coin from Ecuador, 2000, both coins somewhat roadrashed...  stunning and sad. |
