Sacrilegious I tell yah!
Been MD'ing a yard across the street, and don't even get me started on the (current) homeowner from h-e-double toothpicks
 Anyway, having played in the yard many a times with kids that lived there I was curious to see if I could find anything we may have lost in our rugrat days. Nothing thrilling yet, but I did find not one, not two, but three cents that were run over by a train. I remember we all did it when we were kids, but didn't expect to find three scattered in the front yard. One didn't stay on the tracks too long and I noticed it was a poor wheatie that met its' demise  Sacrilege!!!

The neighbor can't be that bad if he's letting you detect his yard, don't tell me he wants those ragged wheaties
 . Wonder who carried them from the tracks?

Hey I used to do the penny thing on the train track.
Sounds like the yard may be interesting to say the least. Good luck with it, Beale.

We had train tracks behind our house growing up, we also used to put pennies on the tracks, did nickels a couple of times, tried a quarter once but it fell off, and Rikki, it flattens them, it was the 'cool' thing to do growing up, yes it also RUINS them, we were too stupid to know that then tho.
