Ok, we know its coming. Now to get ready. Fill the car with gas and the can for the snow blower on the way to the bank to get supplies for being locked in for a couple days. Let me have two hundred in pennies and a box of nicks please. Called my girl friend and gave her the list of supplies to bring home from work. Time to make a big pot of ham and dumpling soup.
So after day one of the storm,nothing to do, all the pennys and nicks are sorted and put away. Blowed out the driveway twice and just waiting for the snow plows to come and push it all back into the entrance again so I can do it all over again. But as I was unrolling the pennys a nice supprise a 43 steal looking at me in the box, Wrong - Its an 86 d zinc, this is the second unplated penny in three weeks, scratched it no copper present. Wish I had something to do except blowing some of the 15 inches of snow around again. Next time we will be more prepaired I will stop at a couple more banks on the way home!!!!!!!!!!
