So I'm cruising down the hill with Beachballer, the two of us on scooters about halfway down, when suddenly I made a fateful decision.
I realized I had a few dollars in my shirt pocket, and $100 bill USD in my front pocket of my shorts. Concerned that the bill might fly out in the wind as I drove along, I figured I should put the 100 in a more secure pocket -- as I was driving along.
So I reached down and pulled it out, going about 25 mph, when poof, the $100 flew into the wind, and I had no idea where it went. I hit the brakes hard and hoped it would be a few feet behind me. There was a craft guy whose attention I got, but the guy was not sure what I was frantically looking for. Then a teenage boy was walking up my way, and I did NOT want him to find it before me.
He was about fifty feet away, approaching me, as I kept on looking. Couldn't find it anywhere. This was turning into a big problem ....
