Today I found 42 cents . . . 2 nickels, 1 dime, and 22 pennies.

Back in Boston there have been some real changes since my departure, just over two weeks ago. First, there are now tables and chairs outside the restaurant that is located on the ground floor of the building where I live (hopefully a sign of Spring). More important, however, is that street cleaning has started. I can already tell that this is going to reduce the number of coins that I find in the gutters along the street.

Lucky for me I was able to find a penny this morning at the North Station t stop by a ticket machine. The remaining change was found under a coin counting machine located in the Federal Building in downwown Boston. This is where I dump my extra coins (no charge for members) and apparently the stash of coins that dropped build up while I was gone.

Totals for the day: 42 cents
Race Totals: $652.05
