Default He lost his screws!

Tuesday night we went to a neighbors potluck dinner, and the neighbor told us that a couple in the campground lost 2 screws near their RV.

The tiny screws are stainless steel, and Vlad offered to help find them. So today our neighbor comes and gets us, we grabbed the Tesoro, and we all went to the campground.

The couple was very nice, and they showed us where he thought the screws were. It wasn't even 5 minutes and Vlad found one.

Then we searched about 45 minutes for the other one, but it wasn't there.

As our neighbor was walking around the RV, he spotted it on the concrete. So cool, both screws were found! The couple was happy because he said the screws could not be replaced.

Even better, the guy told us about a lake nearby that had 2 old swimming beaches years ago! So we were happy to find this out! The wife also gave us a piece of banana cake. Yum. Great Morning!

Sorry, we forgot take the camera, but here's a picture of the camping spot.

PS. Vlad says we're going back and check that spot this Fall when the ground is softer.

Thanks for the comments.

It's always a good feeling to be able to help someone find something they lost.
