Wha...?!?!Auger stolen?!?!
« on: Mar 02, 2012, 12:13 PM »
Whew.... Thankfully it was me!  ;D

Stopped for a burger at a local bar/grill with appleye last night after fishing, then took off for home and left the sled, bucket, etc in the bed of the p/u since I thought I may fish again today. Went out to the garage this morning to work on my taillight (thanks to appleye's keen eye) and unload my gear when I noticed the auger was gone! What a sinking feeling! Recalling a couple of drunks who were leaving the last night I looked over to the wall where I store the auger and it was there lol. I had completely forgot about taking it out of the truck to stand upright so oil wouldn't get past the rings.  ::)

obv getting old(er) sucks  ;D

btw, couldn't find the short so the truck is going into the shop Tuesday.

I can attest to the LOCALS only at R-Place....they are good....its the otsiders/drifters you gotta worry about. LOL Since the average age on a typical night at R-Place is a lil higher than half a dollar or maybe 60  :o....couldnt be them. But you never know!

Just a brain cramp... I had grabbed it and put it up before heading into the house. But the pit in my stomach was there for a few moments before realizing it!

I left to go to the lake awhile back. I was about 5 miles from the house and realized I left my auger at the home. Could have been a disaster.  I guess I need a check list.

I place all my faults on gravity.. It's getting stronger every year.  I can't jump, run or think as fast as I use to when I was younger..
