Flashback in time - Dumpster Diving

For those of you that haven't heard the story, it's a pretty good one. Our beloved Mr. Christopher unfortunately did not realize that the Work Permit the UK issued him was an important document, and decided to toss it while we were still in Portland. Now, the funny part is that he didn't just toss it in the trash can at the house. We actually made a trip to the local dump to get rid of a car full of trash mere hours before leaving the lovely state of Oregon. As we were on about the 2nd or 3rd mile heading out of Portland for the last time, we realized that we were short 1 very important document and immediately made a beeline for the dump. Once we got there, Chris didn't hesitate in jumping straight into the disgusting bin, but fortunately for him we had presumed that we tossed it in the recycled paper bin rather than the even more disgusting pile. After about 15 minutes of Chris frantically throwing papers everywhere, Casie fearful that our trip would be delayed, and Kelly shooting the whole thing on her camera, he came up with the folder that was holding the magic ticket to the UK. Kelly got a couple of lovely pictures (that I can't find for the life of me right now) and a video - the video you can check out on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/v/vslzZmhALP4
