David and Ashley Marasco of Bridgeville, Pennsylvania were driving away from their wedding reception when a motorist pointed out a photo album that had been left on top of their trunk. An envelope containing $3,600 in cash was missing from it! Meanwhile, a a real estate appraiser named Brennan Breene was driving home from a visit with his mother. He saw an envelope in the middle of Washington Pike with money visible. Breene cautiously retrieved the envelope.

"If nobody claimed it, I guess I would've kept it," he said, a thought he barely entertained after he took the package home and counted it. "I figured, in a couple of days, I'd go to the police with it."
So, he said, he looked for news reports about lost money. Scanning the Internet Monday morning, he found a report on the WPXI-TV website about the lost wedding money.
"I come from a big Irish Catholic family, and my parents kind of instilled in us to do the right thing," said Mr. Breene.
Within minutes of having read the news report, Mr. Breene went to Bridgeville police to turn it in.

Of all the good man has done throughout the ages, I think you'll find the greatest accomplishments came in tiny intervals.
