    Found a large shoebox of old baseball cards in my parents attic 10 years ago. They were given to me by a friend when I was about 7 years old. Forgot all about them. 1956 - 1960...

    I found a 20 on the sidewalk on the way into McDonald's once. Waited around to see if anyone came looking around, but no one did. I splurged on a Mcflurry on that McDonald's trip :D :rofl: :lol:

    Found a cell phone once and found a girls purse one time . Located both of their owners. Found a lost dog once and found the owner after a couple of days driving around and knocking on doors.

    When I was around 14 I was walking between the river and the road at my parents and found a bunch of scattered manila folders that someone must have tossed out of a car (people often used that strip of road to dump their trash, which meant the next flood would take all their crap to our property). Inside were nudie magazines. I thought I won the lottery!

    My junior year of college I was talking to one of my professors and he mentioned that the Engineering department had a bunch of money just collecting interest in a bank account that was meant for scholarships, but no one really knew it was there. So I tracked down how to apply for it and received a full ride my Senior year, which helped tremendously since I was paying my own way through school.

    My camp is very remote . No houses 3-4 miles each way . 1 lane dirt rd.
    A couple summers ago found 4 aluminum rims in the weeds at my camp gate. The stud holes were all elongated. Next time I went to town cashed'em in at the scrap yard for $87. Found $100 worth of silver in a dumpster recently.

    I found a $20 bill a few months ago. It was in the pocket of my Carhartt bibs that I hadn't worn since last winter.
