The other day, I was showing my wife how to use the snow blower when it suddenly quit.  This did not surprise me since it had not been used since last winter.  But, try as I might, I could not get it started.  So, I put it back in the garage until I could work on it.

When Saturday rolled around, I tried to get it started again.  That is  when I noticed that the key was missing.  When I inserted the spare key, it started right up.  And while it will run just fine with the spare key, I have to wonder what happened to the original key.
