I Got Lucky

By Greg

One November morning I woke up, looked out my bedroom window and there was about 2 feet of snow on the ground. I yelled, "Yahoo!" I loved everything about Snow, the chill of coldness it sends through your body, the sugary smell of it, and the happy feeling it gives you. I went into my Moms room and said, "I'm going to 7-11 ill be right back.

"Ok," she replied. I ran, got my wallet and I was already out the door. I was quickly walking up my street admiring all of the snow when I saw a dollar in the gutter on the side of the road. I picked it up.

"Cool!" I said and kept on walking. A few feet later I saw another and another and another, in the snow, I picked them all up. I said, "Wow," I was surprised. As I had happily continued I noticed the air smelt smoky from all the fires burning little further on I turned around to see I was surrounded by bills. I started picking them up. When I was done I had fives, tens, ones and twenties in my hand. I hurried home and ran into my room and started counting, when I finished I had $101.00 I yelled! My mom made me wait a week incase anyone claimed it and no one ever did. I hope I will never forget that.
