After building the car lot, (see below), Spence came up with a way to actually earn money for himself- by charging people 1¢ to hear him play a song on the harmonica! He got a plastic bag that already had his name on it and using a marker added 1¢ under his name. He then got his harmonica and went out onto the front porch to solicit whoever might be walking by for money. He did end up making 26¢ from his mother but that was the extent his money making venture.

It was worth every penny to watch him close his eyes and tap his foot as he played a soulful tune.
Was payment to stop playing?
ReplyDeleteNope. He only played if you paid him to. No freebies, not even for mom.
ReplyDeleteLOL. That's cute.
ReplyDeleteI was going to take pictures yesterday while we were out... completely forgot with all the itching. bah.
