Why am I talking about April Fools Day? I mean like we haven't gotten through St. Paddy Day... But my reason is two fold...
First off... What was one of your most memorable April Fools Day?
For us it went something like this...
Linda, my wife, and I had dinner with two other couples one year on the 31st of March... Linda and I are always on the go and are usually home long enough on any given day to shoot, shod, band, and/or feed the critters and then we're off again...
Well to make a long story short, during our dinner, our friends suggested that we all haul our horses down to the river and go for a ride the next morning after breakfast...
The next morning, I go out to round up the horses as Linda starts breakfast and they were nowhere to be found... I mean it's not like they can get lost in their twenty acres pasture. I call Linda on the cell as I head out to check the fence line... She, still in her PJ's, hops on a four wheeler to run down the canal... Not a trace... No broken fences, no divits in the ground from leaping over any fences... No gates left open... No tracks down the driveway from either the horses or a truck and/or trailer... It was like they just vanished...
Well sparing you any further details, the other two couples had come over the just before dinner, snatched our steeds, dropped them off at one of their homes and continued on to dinner... By the time we had gotten home, it was dark and it had rained enough to obliterate the truck and trailer tracks...
Sooo Secondly, I am looking for revenge! I am hoping that armed with one of your stories and two weeks to plan it... Linda and I will be able to get even this year..
