Returning to my car I pushed my little electronic opener to unlock the car, got inside and went to put the key into the ignition. There was no key. This isn't a regular size key, it's a large one, with a heavy black top so I don't know how I missed that it was gone. I searched through the car, I walked back over the grass to where I was when I took my keys from my pocket, I looked around my car. Nothing. I sat in the car for a few minutes wondering what I was going to do. I have a spare key at home but it was too far to walk so I finally decided I'd have to call AAA. I thought I'd take one more look around the grass before I called. When I got out of the car I realized I hadn't looked underneath it. Yep, there it was, lying near the back tire. I don't know if I dropped it before or after my walk but I was very grateful it was there!
Anyway it was a beautiful day and despite the path and lost key I had a pleasant time. After retrieving my key, I sat in my car and read for awhile and that made everything better!

i like the ducks and the ponds, but the all the poop is gross. i remember going to a cute little pond one day with one of my babies and a friend. i wanted to leave immediately when i looked down and the ground was covered in crap. nasty. and, i've also had my car key fall off my ring, but i was at the grocery store. lo and behold it had fallen off somehow right beside the car, i'm assuming on my way in. thank God it was still there when i came back out. glad the reading made your day better.
The Canadian Geese actually contaminate the ponds in this area. They stay all year now because of all the retention ponds in the area for subdivisions and such.
You had the perfect resource to calm your trial.
Let's see what you can get into NEXT time ~lol~

Lisa - sounds like your pond adventure was as bad as mine! It's amazing how lucky we can be sometimes when it comes to finding lost things. I know I felt lucky yesterday!
Carol - I can see why the geese would make the ponds bad! I think I like nature at a distance, it's much cleaner! I'm going to walk on my clean neighborhood streets for awhile.
