Default Whole Wheat Father's Day...
I awoke to some great gifts from the kids including this t-shirt....yes, I am invisible. It reads 1,781,355....and counting. I'd dig another 30 pulltabs or so this weekend...



I spent the weekend at the local elementary school as so many roads were closed due to flooding. Four of my local haunts are under water, so I decided to stay close to home. I found some kiddie jewelry including some junk rings and a silver monogram charm...



The silver was elusive until I snagged this '50 Rosie along with a wheatie in the same hole on an old sledding hill...



The wheats were all over the sledding hill located on the side of the school. I though this would turn into some silver goodness, but just the one Rosie was all I would snag this weekend...

Great shirt geodawn, but are the kids trying to tell you something?

Maybe that you dig too many pulltabs.

Something tells me that Mom filled them in. I only come home with "treasure"...they miss all the garbage. It's all part of the illusion!
