My findings for the week 2/17-23

It was a very lucky week for me. I only found 3 pennies but I made up lots of ground with the watch (it works) and the brass casings. I also found a fork, which was only silver plate and not worth anything as it was smashed flat. Luckily because of my Pa, I knew that the shells had value to re-loaders. I first saw them on my sat run, but I didn't have anything to carry them back in. I talked to Pa, who was quite horrified that someone would leave them behind, he said to get them. I felt I had to get them soon before someone else did. So Sunday morning I set out on my mission. They were out in the desert about two miles away from the house. It was hot. Hotter than realized. And it took longer then I realized to collect them. And they were heavier than I realized.Lots of hard realizations that trip.  I weighed them and they were close to 4 LBS!! I had only brought my small waist pack so it really wasn't meant for that weight and it kept slipping and was hard to run with. Needless to say I was super thirsty by the time I got home.  I was wondering if they had been worth it. Once Pa sorted them, he said he could give me $15 for them. I only got $3 for the leather watch. I told them to only give me what they would if someone came in trying to sell them stuff for some quick cash.  So for the year my total is $19.24. I am keeping a jar with my earnings and plan and using for a souvenir when we take the family vacation to Disneyland.

A good week!
