I was by the side of the fence this afternoon where I always stand to give the calves a treat. I just happened to look down and see an old rusty horseshoe . I was so thrilled to find it. I thought at once that good luck would be coming my way. Also, I knew that it had belonged to my granddaddy. So I just had to retrieve it.
My husband was out in the pasture, but I would not wait for him to come and get it. I walked over to a wooded area to get a long stick to use to rake it under the fence so I could reach it. The next thing I knew I was on the ground. I had tripped on an old piece of barbed wire. Thank goodness no one saw me hit the ground. The calves just stood and stared with a worried look knowing I was not supposed to be down there.
I managed to get up and get my horseshoe. Guess all the rains we have had washed it up. But it did not bring good luck, only a hard fall. Oh well,maybe the good luck is on the way!
