Why Is There A Rake In My Lawn?

This isn’t metaphor for anything; I literally had a rake on my lawn. I come home today and noticed a rusted rake hiding in the tall grass. The whole time I was walking to my mailbox I was wondering how it got there. Was there a Gardner on the run who had to dump his evidence? Is it someone who was trying to give me a hint to tell me to clean my yard? Or is someone playing a nonsensical prank on me. Maybe someone else is writing a blog about putting random things on my lawn.
I mean it is a really nice rake and all. If I owned this rake I would never let it go out of my sight and someone easily dumped it in my lawn like it was a candy wrapper. I don’t think this post is really going anywhere so I am just going to stop.
