The other day we decided to do a 600km fact finding day drive from Melbourne via a big hill called MT Skene which some like to close over winter now because of the possibility of snow.

While investigating alternate paths near the 5000 ft line we stopped for a few seconds to get better quality video footage and my wife picked up a glasses case at 12:38:16.

It contained prescription glasses and a card from an optometrist and a couple of personal things in it.

She decided to make it a mission to return them.

A hard to read appointment name was on the card , so she made a few calls and got to the optometrist who worked out who it could be. She left her number and the Optometrist called the owner and gave our details.

After several missed calls they contacted us and what a coincidence.

We had found the stuff 250km from home probably within hours of them losing it.

Can you see it in the video frame ?

The owners could have just as easily have come from a foreign land like NSW but they lived only 15km from us.

An hour later they showed up and were so grateful and gave my wife a nice box of chocolates.

It is definitely starting off as a happy near year and I hope it gets better and better for all of us as the Christmas spirit is still alive.



Footnote - If you find the glasses case in the video frame don't expect any of the chocolates cause I'm keeping them all.
