Cha$ching

I was paying for chocolate truffles at the Chocolate Factory (across from Dixon Springs State Park, where my mom and uncle both once worked, and on the way to Golconda) when the cashier noticed the penny I gave her had a strange look, and offered it back. It's a 1919 wheat penny. It's only worth about $1, but still, it feels like a windfall.

A wheat penny, excellent. I love those.

I didn't work at Dixon. I worked at Lake Glendale. Gary and Sharon both worked at Dixon as did Steve.
