On January 12, 2024, a severe winter storm was sweeping its way across southern Wisconsin. It dumped around 13 inches of heavy, wet snow and shut down schools and businesses. Bill, like most Wisconsinites, was clearing his driveway and unfortunately lost his set of keys in the process. This was not a usual set of keys. It included two key fobs, shop keys, house keys, and a post office box key. His emergency text went out at 10:00pm to Ringfinder Seth Tost of Lake Geneva, WI.
Ordinarily this might have been a simple search, but Bill did not realize his keys were missing until after he had cleared the snow and pushed it into compacted piles around the perimeter of his driveway, across the road, and 50+ feet down a side road. The keys could have been anywhere.
Seth got the text the next morning and met up with Bill around 10 am.
Some searches that seem easy, can take a looooong time. Others that appear to be a losing game from the beginning, end with that miracle find. Today was that miracle find. After a little over an hour, giving all areas a cursory scan, and digging through a few piles that seemed most logical, the keys were found about 30 feet down the road from Bill’s driveway. The next city snowplow may have pushed them miles from this point. What a joy to return this set of important keys!
