wow, what a curious little stash of coins. an interesting find for sure, SquareCircle. I'm pretty sure I have a LWC or two that resembles your '23-S in my LWC folder. we had overnight rain, some of it was pretty heavy. there was no time for pickin' last night. I had a brief window of time to get out to feed the kitties, so that's all I did, and I was delayed by over an hour waiting for the rain to back off so that I could do it. I got a little wet, but not too much. I was just glad to have found all the cats and get back home before it started coming down again.

i just love cats. I'm going to obtain a better food for them. lately I've been chopping up hot dogs and adding the bits to their canned food. the hot dogs are all-beef, the leftovers from the hot dog stand grill each friday & saturday night. i'll eventually work into handing out better stuff for them, and stop giving them the bigger name-brands. their lifespans are not long to begin with, I don't need to contribute to that. live long and prosper. make lots of kittens.
there's more rain in the area tonight. we had a brief blast already this evening, so I'm looking to dodge the rain again tonight. it may be too wet outside to bother with pickin' later.

just thinking out loud:
gold has been bouncing around generally between $3200-$3400 since it poked up toward $3500 not long ago. if it's going to continue bouncing around in between those numbers, basically doing the sideways shuffle, I think I had better turn in what street monies I have and nab a bit of gold before it takes off again. I already have enough street coin & cash to make a conversion. I might be sorry if I wait until black friday. it's 29 weeks away. a lot could happen in 29 weeks. heck, the upcoming 2-4 weeks have me concerned.
additionally, I'm hatching a plan to recover $600 of gift money that was given to me months ago; I was going to use that money to put toward gold, but I had an 'emergency' and had to use it elsewhere. I really wasn't happy about that and I vowed to recover it at some point. I am nearly at that point now. I want to turn in my street funds and my recovered gift money very soon. the sooner the better. gold isn't going to continue the sideways shuffle for 29 weeks and I may regret not jumping on it soon. I ought not wait.
