188 Interlocking Pieces




Day Forty-Seven - Tuesday, April 14

I dropped by a few schools en route to a 2PM appointment with books and got a cluster-f of coins. The last school I had to leave early so I wouldn't be late for the booksale and there were still several sections to check. It's kind of out of the way so I'll have to schedule it for some other Tuesday trip methinks. Said school yielded me almost $9 and I'm pretty sure that I would have cracked the $10 mark there if I hadn't been out of time. This same schoolyard yielded me a mercury dime, gold chain and a sterling silver Zeppelin pendant last year amongst a healthy heaping of clad. I shall be back there at some point later this year. The $18 cross cancels out my lost week and put me right back on my goal. $181.95 already!
