Slide....

So what do you do when a $599.99 (I checked at Amazon) Maui Mat randomly washes up on your beach?  Easy, you pack a cooler and grab the gal pals for some fun in the sun.  It's the most expensive 'find' I've ever been privy to.  Never have won at Lotto or the casino.  Yep, this giant lily pad was the big one.

On Saturday we took our new found treasure out and found that it also works as a roof of sorts as the rain poured down for a bit.  The Maui Mat is all that it is cracked up to be and we are happy to use it until it's rightful owner can claim it.  (Later at the bar, the young chickies 'found' some cute locals to claim as their own-okay for the night anyway!)

While on a walk today, Kristin spotted a fiver laying on the path and scooped it up.  Bonus!  We looked around a little in case, like picking morels, there would be more bucks lying about.  No such luck.

So, how about you?  Any lucky streaks?  Find anything good?

Let me know!

That looks fun, Jodi! And like the cover of an album, in the spirit of the Go Go's?

Carry on . . .

I've found things, but nothing quite so colorful . . .

I found a letter saying the city was cutting my pension by 25% so someone at least had a good find. "fuck 'em."

Erik-it was totally a 'Vacation' moment! Mark-awww c'mon...Nothing good? Charles-it was a pretty good find. Actually, the float found us! Having trouble with the new look of blogger. For the last 3 weeks, it doesn't want to let me do a new post. Any ideas? Grrrrr..rrrrrr!
