The weather has been lovely lately, so I've begun to revive this project and have dispersed some more wishes. Yesterday, March 19, I dropped several of the newer pennies around the art museum grounds in Forest Park.
Today I placed some more pennies at University City around the Skinker end across from the Pageant. Unfortunately it rained, so I think the printing on the labels with the blog address washed off (fortunately the ink I've been writing the messages with is waterproof).
A Creative Commons project begun by Jennifer Weigel in which pennies were altered with the addition of small stickers, each sticker voicing a wish or desire (some based on my own wants, others based on wishes that I perceive others to have). The pennies were left penny side up, sticker side down, on the sidewalk such that passer-bys will happen upon them and pick them up.
