   Tell us about a time when you stumbled upon something (valuable, or just   
   interesting) in an unusual place.  Were you doing work on a house and did you   
   open a wall up to find something?  Were you cleaning out a closet, or did you   
   open up a box or reach into a pocket of an old jacket, and find something   
   tucked away?

   appreciate, the feedback!
