Evil Squirrel's Nest

Photo taken: January 31, 2013

My Dad was something else… and this is my favorite photo I took of him, which I used occasionally on my blog even before he passed last year.  So what’s the story behind this picture?  Well, Dad occasionally borrowed money off of me… and at my request, always paid it back in one dollar bills.  No, I don’t frequent the types of places you would need lots of singles for… I’ve long been an avid user of the website “Where’s George?” which allows you to enter, mark, and track where your paper currency goes throughout the country and even the world.  Ones obviously end up in change a lot, so they move at the fastest rate… plus, you can release more into circulation at the time.  So anyway… Dad brings me this stack of 100 one dollar bills… and being weird like he was, he sorted them out on the table by each of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks (That A through L letter on each bill).  When I came in and saw this scene of Dad laid out with twelve stacks of money in front of him… I had to grab the camera, and true to form, he hammed it up for me with the side glance and crossed arms.  Way to keep it real, Daddy Mack…
