"Take a pic of a penny in an odd situation. Surprise me tomorrow."
Amazing what a different spin the afternoon had, as I sought out photos, and tried to figure out which I could work pennies into. At days end, after an afternoon in Paxton, and an evening at a cookout, I came home with fewer than I expected.
Feel free to join in the challenge. Give us a penny photo! Post it on your blog and I'll link to you. If you don't have a blog, email yours to me, and I'll post it here.
1-2-3-GO!

If I hadn't understood why you loved him before now, I understand now. What a great text/idea/request. It's great when they know us that well, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool idea. Maybe I'll try some tomorrow. I loved yours.
ReplyDeleteAnd with my typical lack of aplomb, what caught my eye when I read this post? The reference to Paxton as a small town. It made me chuckle, because growing up I thought of Paxton as the "big town several miles away where you shop." It is amazing to me how many things remind me lately of what a small town hick I was growing up with such a narrow vision of the world.
ReplyDeleteI won't mention the town in which I grew up because that would really narrow down my anonymity a bit more than I'm ready to reveal. Suffice it to say there are plenty of tiny villages in that neck of the woods, and I grew up in one of them.
You could have at least stopped by to say hello.
ReplyDeleteBostonPobs: Teehee. I know!
ReplyDeleteGeewits: Yay, do it, do it!
Trueself: Ha! I can kind of see that, knowing the "suburbs" of Paxton. Poor Paxton is a bit of a ghost town these days; lots of empty buildings. :-(
Wry: I went door to door looking for you, but all I have to go by is a neighbor mowing snow...
What a cool idea, I just might try this...
ReplyDeleteI particularly like your last picture; it is our family tradition to leave a shiny penny heads up on our grandparents' gravestones...I am sure Lucky appreciates the penny!
