Photo Hunter

Today’s Photo Hunters scavenger hunt is Thirteen. Hmm.

I remembered that last Sunday, April 13th, was a certain president’s birthday. Can you guess?

That’s a rare $2 bill I have there. My grandparents gave it to me when I was kid. I heard a news story a year ago that a man tried to use his $2 as a prank. He went to a store to buy something there, maybe some teak patio furniture, heh heh. (A $2 is legal tender, by the way). The cashier didn’t know that $2 are legal, so she called the police, and the man was arrested for fraud and counterfeiting money! He had to explain that this $2 was genuine and was legal to use. I have my $2 tucked away, but I snapped a photo of it. It’s a little blurry– sorry!

Thomas Jefferson was born on April 13, 1743. I always remember it, because my uncle shares his birthday!
