Literarily ... Jack's out of town and I had to get the trash out tonight - only I couldn't find the gate key anywhere. Not on the freezer where we always keep it, or any pockets of any pants Jack or I wore in the last week. No where I could think of! After about an hour of serious frantic searching (cause on top of that the lawn man is coming tomorrow too) I found instead Jack big ass Metal cutters and with the help of the wall of the house I clipped the lock right off. Of course now i'll find the key.

Megan and I will head out after dinner and buy a new lock with lots of keys!
