A treasure in the trash



A treasure in the trash
STRUTHERS -- A Grimm Heights Avenue man found a surprise on his porch Thursday morning -- $10 and a note thanking him for the trash he left on the curb.
"I put an old swimming pool ladder out last night," said the man, who asked to remain anonymous. "This morning I opened the door and there was an envelope with $10 inside and a note that said, 'It may have been trash to you but it was worth something to me. Here is $10 for the ladder. P.S. I needed the plastic steps.'
"I can't believe someone would do that," the man said, a big smile spreading across his face.
