TROWELS ARE SNEAKY TOO!!!!

I use my garden trowels all the time....almost on a daily basis actually. The only problem is that I can't seem to keep track of the stupid things! Most of them have unpainted wooden handles, so they blend in with the ground too easily and I have a tendency to walk away from them. Recently I got smart and bought a few new ones that have bright, colorful handles....I was proud of myself and ready to go....

Then yesterday while doing some weeding around the steps I thought I saw something....


So I got down on my knees to get a closer look.....


And look what I found!!!!


UGH!!!! 2 of my old trowels! Obviously I had set them on a step and then someone  kicked them down between the stairs and they landed on the ground ...out of sight.  Oh well, at least I have plenty of trowels now!
