Searching Low

     I guess he never heard the complete expression, "Search high and low."  This morning a car was parked in our driveway with 2 kids in it.  Turns out the father had placed his wallet on top of the car and driven off, the wallet flying off and spewing the contents. He found his wallet, but the stuff was gone, including his driver's license, said the son. The man was gone quite a while, searching most intensively at last week's accident scene, where there's still a lot of torn up earth.  I saw the man as he approached his car, looking down into the ditches.  (Poison ivy is prevalent alongside the road, so I hope he recognized it.)  I went back into the house and didn't stay until he got back to his car, but I would have told him to look UP the bank.  Paper products scatter up, even into the trees when so thrust by passing cars.  Men can't find anything anyway.
