I had a strange experience that was the reverse of losing something off my vehicle. Last week I took a trip to the local country store to get some milk. Was walking back to the car when a glint off the hood catches my eye. As I appraoch I'm amazed to see a handlful of change sitting there on the hood. I scratch my head, looking around - but it's early in the morning and apart from the guy in the store there's no one around. I'm mildly miffed that there's metal coins on my paint but way more intrigued about how they got there.

So I scoop em off, dump em in the cup holder and go on my way. Later that day I'm recounting this strange tale to my wife and a neighbour. As I describe the mysterious happening, the neighbour gets this sheepish look on her face and admits it was her fault. Seems her kid and my kid were bounching on the trampoline out back the day before when change starts flying out of their pockets. So she scoops it up and, for some reason, decided the hood of my car was best place for the pile.

I'm amazed it stayed there for the ten mile drive over some pretty bad roads, but even more amazed I was so oblivious as to not notice it when getting in the car. The slope of the hood is such that it wasn't visible from the drivers seat but usually I at least give a vehicle a once over before I drive it. Course, it was a pre-coffee excursion - hence the reason for the drive in the first place...
