    Luck of the Irish

     



    I decided to drive the 37 yesterday. When I pulled it outside to warm up a bit I realized I had lost the right side front hub cap the last time I drove it……great. I’d had a heck of a time finding hub caps I liked for the truck and had actually ended up over paying for a set off E Bay.

    I figured what the heck I remembered where I had gone the last time I drove it so I figured I'd drive that way and see if it was sitting alongside the road somewhere…….like that’s ever worked.

    I just made a turn onto the second road and the phone rang….it was my daughter and I figured I’d better answer it. I pulled over to the side and shut the truck down. The reception was crappy so I got out of the truck and walked around to the passengers’ side so the signal would stop breaking up. As I was talking to her I happened to glance down and there 10 feet from where I parked was my hub cap. It had rolled behind a bush where I wouldn’t have seen while driving down the road.

    And yes I will take bind dumb luck any day. Decided not to buy lottery ticket …. figured I’d already used up my luck for a while.
