    nice beach find.

    As I was "lifeguarding" my boy on an unguarded beach, I saw a bank note blow by me into the surf. I ran and grabbed it. It is was a one dollar note. The people nearby said, " good job!" I joked and said, "too bad it wasn't a hundred. But where there's one, there's often another." I turned to walk back to the chair and I saw another. You guessed it, it was a hundred! Checked around and could not find an owner, so I guess the family gets dinner tonight. My previous largest cash find on the ground was $40.

    When I lived in Puerto Rico I would go snorkeling in front of the Ritz Carlton Hotel about every 3 months. Occasionally I would find a $20 bill. But most often $1 and $5's. Enjoy spending your "find".

    Not sure why but made me immediately think of 101 Dalmatians.

    Nice finds!
