Yes, that is it ...and sometimes I wonder what's the point of opening that locked box , so to speak. I would have to unbury it and the chains around it are heavy, drag it to surface and then open it. I don't even know where the key is, it just seems so time consuming , a bunch of work. Then there is the fear of what I'll find. Ugh
