Wheels

Yesterdays post was a segway into today's post, our new car and the drama that followed.
As Owen and I were playing outside recently and Rob dove up, but not in the Blueberry. To be honest I didn't think twice about it, I just figured it was a rental and the Blueberry was in for service. Then our friend Arman pulled in the drive and I guessed something was up.


Of course Owen was quite excited and Rob gave him the keys to play with as we all went in for a visit. After convincing me the Blueberry was no more, the guys were off again, we went out side again to say buy then go check out the new car. Turns out that in less than 20 minutes Owen had managed to put the keys somewhere very special, aka, loose them!
I checked the main floor as that's the only place we had been, with no luck. Rob arrived home a short time later and so our search began. First the house, inch by inch, then the front yard and neighbours yard as well. We went over it by hand with no luck and it was beginning to get dark.


Off to bed with no keys.

Next morning, Arman showed up before 8 and we were on the front lawns again. The guys took off to buy a couple rakes and were back with coffees as well, thank goodness. The guys raked while I went though each pile by hand, still no keys. Finally one of our friendly neighbours called CAA and they were here within 15 minutes. After some jiggling, door was opened and we could at least get to the second set of keys.




That evening Rob walked into the kitchen with this.


They were located here.


Don't know how he managed to stuff them into the toe but he did, looks like no more keys for Owen!
