photo a day 108 lucky penny

how ironic is this?
I stop this afternoon
at convenient store to
get something to drink
and to go to the restroom,
once inside the restroom,
this penny was sitting on top
of the tissue, heads up,
I picked it up and low and
behold it is the year I was born.

once back into the truck,
I find in change given back,
85 quarter, the year I graduated
how cool is this.

many blessings everybody
