I'm sure all who peeked at my April the one-th post are going
to feel a little better after this one.

You see, I did get out yesterday for a longer than
usual walk. All seemed to go pretty good.
But, an unusual pattern emerged.

I sort of pride myself in knowing my machine
pretty well and calling my shots is a practice
I always do. Helps me to learn.

Anyway, of course, I miss a few and sometimes it's
a happy mistake, sometimes, not. Well, yesterday
I got so I don't think I could've called my name
correctly if I read it off my ID! :dontknow:

It started with the very first plug. Very loud
90-95, shallow. I was near a tennis court so I called
"Tennis can lid".

" APRIL FOOL! "

Pretty dirty, looking a bit worse for wear.
I said, "Hmmm! Neat little tin key fob"
More on that later.

Then, as I was near to a tot lot, I figured, why not?
I'm going along clearing the sharp metals, getting a few coins
for my troubles. Calling them as I go.

"Nail, tab, zincoln, dime, quarter, dime, nickle, zincoln, zincoln, zincoln.....whaaaaaaa!?!?!"

" APRIL FOOL! "

INDIAN HEAD!!!!!????? :dontknow:

In attempt to make this very long story a little bit shorter,
the whole day went like that for me.

The key? "penny" the whistle "quarter"
" APRIL FOOL! "

2017 (265).jpg

Obviously, "a can"
" APRIL FOOL! "

2017 (266).jpg

Both of these? together, absolutely "quarters"!
" APRIL FOOL! "

2017 (267).jpg

Each of the wheaties? "zincolns"
" APRIL FOOL! " X 3

All I can say is wow! And....a fairly scarce date to boot!
Show & tell gone wrong?

So, finishing the day, OTWBTTC, I get this
obvious "dime" hit...

" APRIL FOOL! " LOL

So, again, I move toward the car. And at this
point I'm giving the Lord praise for such a wonderful
day.But, I said, I was actually, a little bit glad it was over.

I got within a foot of the car and got a beep.

" APRIL FOOL! "

I called, "quarter"

" APRIL FOOL! " :tongue3:

Fishy's happy! (the owl is sterling)

Remember my tinny key fob?

" APRIL FOOL! "
