Little Ole Dime

The goal of "Little Ole Dime" is mainly just to travel the world.  Feel free take photos--be creative!  :-)

(I have a few other "big money" trackables out there--if this one happens to be in the vicinity of any of the others, it would be great to have their photo taken together!):

TB9BDA8 - "A Penny for Your Thoughts"
TB94FZF - "Pennies from Heaven"
TB6BTPZ - "Put Another Dime in the Jukebox, Baby!"
TB96FZA - "Put Another Nickel In"
TB8J2W6 - "Big Chief Buffalo Nickel"
TB9BF14 - "Ben"
TB6BY76 - "Penny Lane"

(Be sure to hide the tracking code when taking any pics).

​(Also, please don't "collect" this trackable, as that will take it out of circulation and spoil the fun.  PLEASE do not take this travel bug unless you'll faithfully log it and take it to another cache.  I can't tell you how many trackables I've released which have gone missing or stagnant, often after just being in one cache.  Please respect the purpose of travel bugs / trackables.  Thank you).

Continuing my theme of naming most of my trackables after songs, "Little Ole Dime" is a song by Jim Reeves.  A member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Reeves was born in 1923 and tragically died in a plane crash in 1964 at the age of 40.  His songs continued to chart for several years after his death.  Written by Jim Carroll, "Little Ole Dime" originally appeared on Reeves' 1963 album "Good 'n' Country" but also later appeared on his posthumous album "Nashville, '78."  Released as a single in late 1977, the song reached #23 on the U.S. country music charts.

Lyrics to the song:
(Song written by Jim Carroll)

Little ole dime
You're the last of a pocket full
I put all the others in this telephone
I've called all over town for a lost love
Let this last number be
The right one

Little ole dime
You're my last chance to find her
And I'm placing all my last hopes on you
Let me tell her I'll always be waitin'
Just in case things don't work out
With someone new

Little ole dime
Plea-ease don't disappoint me
I can't call anymore
You're my last dime
Tomorrow she'll be gone
With her new love
And I've just got to talk to her
One more time

Little ole dime
As you leave my shakin' fingers
I pray I'll hear her answer the phone
The sound of her voice will ease my heartaches
Even though I know tomorrow
She'll be gone

Little ole dime
Here you go after the others
If she answers or not it's still goodbye
I'm almost afraid to dial the number
If she isn't there I know
I'm gonna cry

Little ole dime
Plea-ease don't disappoint me
I can't call anymore
You're my last dime
Tomorrow she'll be gone
With her new love
And I've just got to talk to her
One more time

I'm releasing this trackable at my first-ever hosted geo-event, "Naples, Maine Community Celebration Event" (GC8NPFP) on 20 August 2022.
