Money, Money, Money

My friend and I were walking in Stouffville's century home area  tonight.

We noticed a $10 bill on the ground, then a $20, then more and more.   We collected it all up and then found an envelope with more money.   I noticed that there was an address on the envelope, so we stashed all the bills in and walked to the house.   We knocked but no one was home, so we left the envelope between the screen door and the front door and continued on our way.
Fifteen minutes later a car pulled up beside us, a man jumped out and said "are you the ladies that found the money".   We said we were, and he wanted to thank us with a reward.   We declined.  He wanted to take us for dinner ... we finally settled on a drink on a patio.

After we got seated and ordered a drink, the gentleman thanked us again and then asked if we knew how much money was in the envelope.  We didn't.   He said there was $120,000.00.

SERIOUSLY  $120,000.00.

Maybe we should have at least had an appetizer with that drink!!!!
