Motorhome keys

My BH and I have had a running joke about not finding something and looking for it.
I wanted to move our coach the other day . I looked all over for my keys for pretty much the whole day. I gave up and figured I would retrace my paths later.
The running joke is, if you can't find it, the last place to look is in the refrigerator.
Got hungry and figured I would make a grilled cheese sandwich. Opened the cheese drawer and there were my keys, inside the cheese drawer.
Perhaps it's no longer a joke now
  • A spare key hidden in a tail light is probably the safest and easiest place to hid a key. You can always find a screwdriver to remove a lens to get to the key if necessary.
  • Like nearly everyone else, we keep spare truck keys in the trailer and vise-versa. Great plan until we pulled into a campground and we both got out to look at the site. The dog wanted out and was standing on the arm rest of the door to see where we went and hit the lock button. Of course the trailer was still locked. I was really glad that I had had hidden a truck key outside of the truck.
  • Be careful when wearing heavy gloves.If you are carrying small items like a key ring with one or two keys,you can forget or become side tracked for a few moments and drop them without knowing it since you cannot feel them. If there is soft snow on the ground they are gone until spring.
