[SCA-AE] Lost and Found items in Barony of Endless Hills

[Ireland-delfs, Orilee]

I have a set of keys - at least one of which is a car key - that was
lost and found at an event at least 10 years ago, maybe more.  One of
those things that I would also have expected someone to come looking
for.  After all, how did they get home without their keys?

I may actually still have them in my desk drawer...or I may have finally
thrown them away during one of my latest purges.

The Hael does a similar auction at one of their events and I remember
wandering through the tables piled high with stuff and realizing at
least 3 things on the tables belonged to me and hadn't even realized
they were missing (just not things I had needed or looked for).

Hmm...I wonder if that might be where the items that have been
disappearing into the SCA black hole in my house might be?
