Mystery solved

[bigmacbear]

In our last installment, I mentioned we had but one object missing from our cross-country move in 2005, a mantel clock. Well, I found it today -- in an unlabeled box otherwise containing bits and bobs gathered from the living room and dining room at the last minute. Judging from the packing or lack thereof, my guess is that this was one of the two boxes that did not get shipped, but instead rode with our luggage in the back of gmjambear's car. Gary put a fresh battery in it and it's good as new.
