They are locked here, we live in a big city and had a burglary a few years ago. But I should have left the side door open. That's a sign of living in the city too long, isn't it? Doesn't occur to us to leave it unlocked.

This was just one story. It was dark when the friend with the bag of knitting didn't see that she dropped the sack beside her car and it blew all over three yards and into the woods across the road. The next morning we found most of the contents (balls of mohair and silk yarn are light as a feather). One 12" square start of a scarf in a different wool was the worse for the wear, driven over and mashed into the frozen sand in the neighbor's driveway. When my daughter brought it in the scarf was a dirty frozen plank filled with leaves and sand. I manage to wash it pretty clean. The rest was okay.
