The weather was wet but mild again here in Rhode Island today, so I left early this morning and hit the beach. Nothing but clad going on, so I called it quits after an hour and headed home. After another hour of raking the back yard, I grabbed the Pioneer 101 and hit the yard. Covered about 1/4 of the back yard in an hour, came up with a few clads, lots of nails, and a strange find. It was a modern foil coffee bag rolled up and taped up with filament tape. When I cut it open with my trusty pocket knife, I found four keys, two newer ones and two older ones. I am stumped as to how these came to be where they were. I have lived here for four years, and we have never lost keys like this. I believe they belonged to the previous owner, who owned the home since it was built in the early 50's. I can understand someone rolling up their spare keys and hiding them in the back yard under a rock, or some prominent landscape feature as backups, but these were well off the beaten path, smack dab ib the middle of the lawn, about 4" down! Who knows, some mysteries will forever go unsolved! Nothing great, just keys and clads, but I thought the keys were an interesting find!
