The Nickel Project

My niece collects nickels, so I save my nickels to give them to her for her Birthdays and Christmas. She turned 16 on on the 16th, her lucky years is also her Sweet 16th, I just so happened to collect 16 rolls of nickels since I last gave her nickels.With collecting something like Nickels, I hope she will have a nice bit of money saved for when she is ready to be on her own.

In the past we have packaged them creatively. For Christmas we made a rain stick out of a wrapping paper tube and popsicle sticks. For her birthday last year we melted a coin slot in a large hollow chocolate easter egg (she was a little disappointed she got easter candy in July). This year I didn't have a big enough easter bunny to fit them all, so we decided to sculpt them.....

640 nickels, 6.5 tubes of super glue, and I may try it again, once I get my fingers unstuck.

Quick Look at Our Fourth

Picture of the week!
(You got to click it to appreciate it)

What I didn't take a picture of the catch of the week!
My 8 pound dolly I caught while trolling for Kings.
Which was way bigger then the Halibut Tad snagged!


Really... I meant to focus on the rock...curse it all!

Heathers find.


This shot was requested, the truck belonged to an old man from Oklahoma. I wonder why his ball is upside down?


Beach run.


He looks like he has seen this done.
(don't worry an intense gun safety class was attended by all)


Watch it, Granny's got a gun!
