I found it!

This evening I walked out to the scene of the crash and found the battery in about 5 minutes.  It had flown a lot further from the roof than I thought possible, it was in the grass about 20 feet from where I expected it to be.  Comparing it to a nickel shows how lucky I was to find it.

We had transplanted 4 weigela plants to this area yesterday.  This morning we cleaned it up, leveled it and spread bark nuggets on it.

Another project done, we have been having a great week!

Vera made an apple pie this morning, I am looking forward to a piece of it tomorrow.
