I hoofed it a mile back to the house, not that far but it was incredibly hot that day and I wasn't dressed for exercise.
I tried hitching as I walked, but the best I got was some folks waving to me as they passed by. I eventually made it home and found the "secret key place" and drove back in our other car. Lesson learned: I do not ever leave home without my keys.

PS- My wife enjoyed a cool drink in the cafe next door while waiting
Lesson learned. Next time send your wife back to the house to get the spare key and you enjoy the cool drink while waiting.
