Mayberry, Germany...

Imagine being a woman who lost a designer purse she adores (purchased on her honeymoon) containing:

• 500 Euros in negotiable instruments
• Many credit cards
• Her driver's license
• Other stuff you can't even remember.

Now imagine being her husband...

Today while B picked up Emily from school, her purse fell out of the car. Although Sophia (our four year old) saw it, she didn't mention it because she thought maybe it was just a purse that looked like B's (arrrrrg!). B retraced her steps for the entire afternoon, to no avail, arriving back home in tears. As she approached our door, our neighbor came out and told her that her purse was at city hall! A city worker found it lying on one of Walldorf's busiest streets and took it there. Since our phone is unlisted, they called our neighbor!

Only in Germany (or maybe Mayberry)!
