Pennies from heaven?

This afternoon B and I walked the two blocks to Walgreens to buy Andy his birthday cards. B noticed something shiny on the sidewalk and bent over to pick up a penny. A few steps later, he found another ... and another. I suggested they were "pennies from heaven," but he insisted someone must have walked along with a hole in their pocket, dropping pennies along the way. Perhaps someone put them on the sidewalk and was sitting in their house, watching and waiting to see who would come by and pick them up.

The weird thing, though, was that on the trip back - on the same sidewalk we walked to Walgreens on - we found more pennies that we didn't see walking there. B laughed harder and harder every time he found one. In all, he found 18 pennies.

This morning, Andy and I had to drive back to Lincolnwood to the Buick dealership to learn about all the features of the new car. I think the coolest thing is that we can upload all our CDs to a flash drive, plug it into the car, and they'll play over the radio speakers. The navigation system is pretty cool, too.
