Last April we spent Spring Break visiting with Uncle Brandon and Aunt Annie in the DC area. At the time, Katey was very into reading Ron Roy books and was working her way through The Capital Mysteries series. We had checked out the book Kidnapped At the Capital and she was very excited to read the mystery while we actually were in the Capital city! I know we shouldn't have taken a library book outside of the state, but we did...
As you might have guessed, we misplaced the book and had to report to the library that we lost it and pay the resulting fine.
Fast forward to a week and a half ago when we were visiting Uncle Brandon, Aunt Annie (and Baby Nate) again...in the Capital. We enjoyed a very nice weekend together and had loaded up the car to leave. As I was getting into the van I looked down and noticed a book between the front seats. You can imagine my surprise when I discovered it was the long-lost Kidnapped At the Capital!! It had been in the van the entire time, though we had searched (apparently almost) every square inch of the vehicle several times. I guess we just needed to return to the scene of the crime to discover the missing book. Lost...and found in the Capital. Oh, the irony!
Sobering Celebrations

That is too funny! So, did you return the book to the library or had you already paid for it and now get to keep it?
