We just got a roll! We’ve had a grand evening admiring our new dollars. My 6-yo was tickled to find the words on the edge.

**Monty** , I went by my bank today and asked for them - they don’t have any and probably won’t have any for a few more months.

Sackies, I could have all I wanted…

Sorry 'bout that…

I’m going to feel sorry for the hapless cashier at either Camp Walker or USAGY next time I’m up there. Poor person’s going to wonder why I’m asking her to check every one of the coins in the drawer!

I’d dearly love to have one of those “Godless” dollars if for no other reason than to whip it out the next time I’m visiting my dad and he starts going on about how the US was founded as a Christian country.
