Lost & Found

Found at last ..... I knew I would find him.

There is just no way that something this large could completely disappear from my house.

Last week when I went downstairs to look for something .... lo and behold what did I see, but the pegs to hold my crane in the garden, just sitting there right out in the open. How did I ever miss them??? And of course it also begs the question, how did Don not remember removing them from the base of the crane?

Last night Don and I decided to bring up the table for the patio and as he moved his wheelbarrow, there was my crane, underneath it. He is exactly the same colour as the wheelbarrow, so I guess the old saying applies here .... "I couldn't see the forest for the trees".

All along, I really did have a feeling that this is how he would appear, just one day when I actually stopped looking for him.

What I really don't understand though is, how did I not see him, because where he stood, I had stood many times even with a flashlight looking all around and underneath for him and his big feet.

Oh well, time to stop thinking and be glad that I found him. Now he can take his place of honour back in my garden.
