Good find yesterday

I don't find a lot of cool stuff when riding like some if my friends do. Some stuff pops up more them others like ear buds, gloves, bungee cords, etc.

But yesterday was a cool find..... A $5 bill. It was a good find!

Back in the late '70s, my friend and I went for a recreational ride and I saw a $20 bill on the road, and then another and then he found one and another and by the time we were done, we had found $360 plus the wallet. In the wallet was ID for a nearby factory so we took it over there and passed it on for him. We received an appreciative phone call from him the next day: he was sorry that we didn't find the $360 in $20 bills that was in the wallet (just kidding, we handed it all over).

Nice! I found a $5 bill a few months ago in the road as well. Got a beer!

I found an iPod a couple of years ago. I tried to find the owner but couldn't. In the end I used it.
