Johnny was restless in his tent. He decided to grab his headlight and explore around his campsite a bit. He turned it on and walked into the woods. After walking for a time he saw an abandoned structure. He got closer to it and realized that it was a cabin. He knew that there hadn't been cabins in the BWCA for years, and he thought that this one was older than that. Maybe over 50 years old he thought. He opened the door and began to look around. He found a lantern that he lit and it illuminated a rustic, but cozy cabin. He noticed old blankets, food and survival equipment in the cabin. He began to look around more and found a 1929 newspaper talking about the stock market crash. He knew that it was at least that old since the newspaper was there.

Then he noticed something under the bed. An old rusty box under the bed. There was a padlock on the box, which he quickly broke off with the back end of a hatchet. What he found in the box took his breath away. He found what he would later find to be five hundred thousand dollars worth of gold coins. He took the box and left the cabin and headed back to his camp. He realized when he was thumbing through the coins that there was a note in there. The note read "Whoever found these coins is entitled to them, they are my life savings that I pulled out of my stocks before the market crashed." It was signed, "Edward Green Esq."

He was astonished by this. He knew that he could pay for college with all of this newly found money. He decided to leave the BWCA the next day and go and put these coins in a bank where he could make sure the money was safe. No sense running the risk of tipping the canoe and losing all of his new found riches he thought. As he put them into his bank account once he got back home, the bank manager asked him where he got all of those coins, and he simply said "let me tell you a story, you aren't going to believe".
