I read this article and remebered the quest that made you carry a garden Gnome through Half-Life 2: Episode 2. Since I played it recently and had to go throught the game a second time to complete this quest.
Globe-trotting lawn gnome arrives home - UPI.com
For the people who can make the jump:
GLOUCESTER, England, Aug. 11 (UPI) -- An English couple said a 10-inch gnome statue that disappeared from their home has returned with photos of his travels in 12 countries.
Eve and Derrick Stuart-Kelso of Gloucester said they assumed the 8-pound leprechaun with a green hat had been stolen 11 months ago by college students and would never be seen again. But much to their surprise, the missing lawn ornament reappeared on their doorstep Thursday with pictures showing it in front of the Sydney Opera House in Australia, swimming in the Great Barrier Reef, atop a glacier in New Zealand, touring the ruins of Cambodia's Angkor Wat temple and visiting other exotic locations, the Daily Mail reported Monday.
The photo album was accompanied by a note that claimed to be from the gnome explaining his world tour was a result of "itchy feet."
"I came to the conclusion that the world is a big place and there is more to life than watching the daily commuter traffic, and allowing passing cats to urinate on you," the note said. "So I decided to free myself from the doldrums of the shire and seek adventure. My travels have taken me across three continents, 12 countries and more time zones than I can possibly remember."
