WHERE'S GEORGE $2 BILL TRAVELS 1,700 MILES

Back on September 4, 2010 I picked up a Series 2003 two dollar bill at the Herndon, VA branch of Chevy Chase Bank (now Capital One). It had a stamp for the Where's George banknote-tracking web site. For grins I entered the note's serial number on the site, and two years later got a notification that the note had been seen in Deltona, FL. Well, after another couple years (May 7, 2015) I got another notification, this time that the note had reached McKinney, TX. Here's the trail of its travels, with more details available on the web site. Not terribly important in the grand scheme of numismatics, but a fun diversion. -Editor
