Groovy Gold, a wheaty, and a little head

augusthog · Dec 23, 2010

My mission today was some in town "honey dos" at the post office so my first stop was at the local Loaf & Jug to get some cheap coffie. While paying I notice an old looking penny in the "If you need one, take one" tray. I'll take a 57 wheaty anytime! Yes, I replaced it with a newer, shinier version.
While leaving the store I noticed just up the road a house that has the sidewalk all tore up in front. A quick check and it seems nobody lives there. Cool, I'll be checkin in at city hall about this place later, but for now a quick check of about 40 ft. of open sidewalk (4 squares worth). The only thing I could find was this little soldiers lead head. Would have been nice to find the whole thing, but a little head is better than no head at all.
(I know what your thinkin) :laughing9:

Now I'm on my way to the post office to mail some non X-Mas packages and get sidetracked at the local high school. There's a couple areas I haven't hit yet at the bottom of what would be a good toboggining hill. About 4" down I strike Groovy Gold! Didn't have the camera with me so I cant show ya what it looked like in the muddy dirt, but you know what the rush feels like! :headbang:

Also cleaned up about 13 bucks in loose change.
It wasn't till I got home that I noticed I forgot to mail them packages off.

Whoops.

As I grow older it happens more often. I also find my hair is sucking into my head and is now coming out my nose and ears

Yeah, the title caught my eye, as well. The gold and wheatie didn't concern me, it was..............well, you know. Anyway, 'grats on the gold, good find on the wheatie and you might want to check with the local VA to see if the little soldier my be suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome.
