The Case of the Missing Camp Trunk

|

In July of 2007 I shared the trauma of packing my first camp trunk. Four summers later, I can assure you, digging a swimming pool in your backyard is easier than packing a complete trunk.  

So my heart goes out to the University Park mom who placed her child’s fully loaded trunk in the front yard yesterday afternoon for a few short minutes and returned to find it had been stolen. STOLEN. Gone. Vanished.

Seriously. How do you even make a quick getaway with a ginormous, heavy trunk?
