However, sometimes we find. Finding is usually a lot more fun, especially when it is a surprise. A friend of ours keeps a running tally of how much money she finds. My grandfather used to say that you can't find money looking in the air, so I have always walked with my eyes to the ground. I have found an occasional coin (once I found $250), but they are getting fewer and further between as people use more credit/debit cards. Today, Jokker was the big winner. We took the dogs for a walk in Creve Coeur Park. Because the trails were really muddy we walked the fields. As we strolled the perimeter of the softball field I found a nice florescent softball. Jokker love balls, so there was a long game of throw and fetch. Figuring it was his lucky day, we circled the whole outfield. We found 4 softballs in really great condition. There is a tennis court adjacent to the ball field, so we walked it as well. Here we found 8 tennis balls (Jokker's ball of choice). As we headed back to the vehicle, Jokker pranced ahead of us with a new tennis ball in his mouth! It was a dog day indeed.
Jokker and his stash! |
