Mad Dash for Cash

It's windy today. Let's be honest, it is often windy in Oklahoma. It isn't normally THIS windy, though. Anyway, that's the backdrop.

Jenn and I went out after work to do yard work (fix up some beds, lay out mulch, edge, etc.). We were cleaning up (sweeping up the edging debris) when we saw a couple kids running up the street from the south, chasing after something. I watched as it came closer, and at first I thought it was a baseball cards or something similar.

Nope! As it got closer, I noticed that it was green. It was cash. I was ready to stop it with my broom.

Whoops. Fail! It went right by. So, I turned and chased it. I got close a couple times, but I was hampered by my work gloves, which limited dexterity.

I chased it down the street, and I caught up to it at the end of the street, as it got hung up on a curb. Phew. I'm a bit under the weather, and that's all I had in me.

I met up with the kids near our house. I think they quit chasing when they saw me pick up the task. Lazy kids.

A bit later, we heard the boys' father ripping into them about something.
