I again cackled to the point of tears, loud enough to pull Hubs from his piano playing. Dang, this is still a fun one.<br /><br />xoxoMargihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00380912871792176901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8843846398320473138.post-60524507916576040272012-03-22T12:32:13.963-07:002012-03-22T12:32:13.963-07:00Cows are frequently underestimated, in my opinion....Cows are frequently underestimated, in my opinion. They have such kind eyes. They are like ornery organic cars with kind eyes. A deceptive lot, those cows.<br />I love this story so much. I admit to being surprised that you were so freaked out. It conjured so many memories of getting lost in our woods as a child. <br />I am laughing and love that the two of you have such a strong friendship that you can survive terror together.TangledLouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04771682524596744447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8843846398320473138.post-12299828800311213632012-03-21T08:20:26.481-07:002012-03-21T08:20:26.481-07:00I'm a horrifically intermittent commenter, but...I'm a horrifically intermittent commenter, but I need to say these things. First, for the "needing a laugh" post - <br />I think you should simply take that Audrey Hepburn post and read it like Kathryn Hepburn right before she passed away. In fact, if you AND your husband did that it would probably be the best thing ever.<br /><br />Second - I'm so sorry you were treed by a cow in your youth. I experienced a time when I thought a huge, raging bull with horns was chasing me and I barely escaped through the barbed wire fence before being gorged. But I think he didn't have horns, and he quit running about half-way across the pasture. So, for some reason, I remain unscathed emotionally. I can understand, however, how your brain really worked you up on that whole "lost in a forest thingy."<br /><br />And finally - I loved the name the "Murder Shayed." It cracks me up. I think we need to place a intermittent web camera in the tree and investigate exactly how it is that that shed opens and shuts itself. It could very well be two highly trained coyote/bobcat/dogs.<br /><br />who knows?<br /><br />Love and kisses, Red Dirt KEllyRed Dirt Kellyhttp://www.reddirtchronicles.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8843846398320473138.post-79141143311524951962012-03-20T13:08:40.325-07:002012-03-20T13:08:40.325-07:00Hey Sonya!! Thank you so much for the encouragemen...Hey Sonya!! Thank you so much for the encouragement!! LOL This story could have been both MUCH shorter and MUCH longer. And really, what IS IT about adulthood lending us more fear than we had in childhood? I guess we learn too much for our own good (fun). Have an awesome day! : )Marie at the Lazy Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11499662322233018616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8843846398320473138.post-36867585446693060332012-03-19T20:21:18.106-07:002012-03-19T20:21:18.106-07:00Oh, how I enjoyed this!

I used to wander alone through the woods (about 20 acres) all the time as a kid without fear. Somehow I don't think that would be the case as an adult. :) So glad you made it out and with a $10 story too!Sonya@Beyond the Screen Doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11205758136121070729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8843846398320473138.post-55880934070235098222012-03-19T17:58:27.001-07:002012-03-19T17:58:27.001-07:00Well I didn't *PLAN* to tell you and the whole...Well I didn't *PLAN* to tell you and the whole world about my intense cow fear, but there you have it. I have sent the better part of my day celebrating how hilarious THAT day was! I will definitely be posting a photo follow up!! Today's was just so dang long, I hated to double it.

She was FINE! We weren't even wearing high heels or anything. No walking backwards ...<br /><br />I do remember the cow patty incident and trying to figure out how cow patties got in there. Not being aware of phantom menace cows, I wasn't worried. Whatsa cow gonna do? Come on!<br /><br />I've read this over and over and laughed so hard I ached. I don't know if anyone else will get the enjoyment out of our stories that we did. Hubs barely cracked a smile, though did tell Tanner that you and I are nutso.<br /><br />xoxo what a totally FUN hike memory!<br /><br />Oh, you should share a follow up with pics of the bike, and maybe a story about how we tore it from the grips of the tree who was holding it. And used our brute strength to rip the tires off.Margihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00380912871792176901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8843846398320473138.post-76442954398273834532012-03-19T12:35:10.192-07:002012-03-19T12:35:10.192-07:00Awww, I came from M's post to see if you'd...Awww, I came from M's post to see if you'd written yours, fulling intending to give you a little good-natured ribbing. I can't now, of course, seeing that you really were having an awful time of it. Fear is a horrible feeling. <br /><br />Hey, do you have a pic of the old bike you guys found? I'd love to take a peek!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
