The NYC Finds

As you know, this Monday was my 30th Birthday. So to mark the date, I took the week off work, and Marti and I traveled to NYC for a vacation. Marti has never been, and since I used to live here (Which is why I'm a Mets fan), I had to come say goodbye to Shea Stadium. (Plus Marti had to come say Hello/Goodbye).

So far I have been doing great with finds in New York. Here is what I have found since my last post;

• 1 Dollar Bill at STL TSA
• 1 dime & 2 pennies at Airport Starbucks
• 1 dollar on ground at Newark AirTrain station
• It is worth noting that I used airline miles and hotel points for this trip. The coffee we got at Starbucks cost us $6. Since we found 2 bucks and change, we were at a point where it was possible that found money was paying for the trip. That ended when we paid $30 for the train tickets from Newark to Penn Station!
• 1 penny near escalator at Penn Station, NYC
• 1 penny at NBA Store on 5th Ave
• 3 pennies on 34th Street in front of my old apartment
• 4 pennies around NYC
• 1 dime at Shea Subway Station
• 2 pennies at Shea
• 1 penny at Times Square Subway Station
  

I was so excited that I was able to find change on the street of my old apartment (34th & Lex, if you are interested) AND Shea Stadium. Very solid day.

I leave you with pictures of Grover in front of my old Apartment, at Shea Stadium for the Mets game (We beat the Phillies, sorry Brian!) and a photography picture that I am proud of.

Hopefully, if things keep up, more finds to come, as we are here until Saturday.
