My friend dropped them (I still don't know how) and they fell into this huge drift of snow. He then covered the hole where they went in 'by accident' while he was trying to dig them out, so I don't have a good idea of where they ended up. Looks like I'll have to recover them in the spring. Life sucks sometimes.

Lost my keys last winter in some snow in the front of my house. Found them the following summer while cutting the grass. Thought I had ran over one hell of a rock.

Guste try to find a geek with a good metal detector !

I lost my keys last summer while in the yard.
FOund all the small pieces and half a key chain after I cut the grass!
I thought when I found the plastic key chain oh well my keys must be near...nope every one of em (6) was chopped up.
THen I ran over a green rake head my kids left in the long grass...I think I need a new blade ...lol

Metal detector.... Good idea! Does Home depot rent something so geeky? I don't think I know anyone with a metal detector heehee.

sbp, my sentiments exactly. Still, no pies for you!

If the snow isn't packed too hard, then get a rake and drag it around the area you think those keys may be at...

If you find them, then I expect a pie! :)
