Bonehead Move

[Scrundy]

Skied Greek last night with kid, get home and realize mine and her’s skis are not in truck!
Apparently I left them leaning on truck and never loaded them. My defense is wife called and SHE side tracked me, so really it’s her fault ?
Drive clear back up to Greek (45 min) and there they sit in a pile. That sure was a stressful drive back up, totally expected to see hers ( rentals ) but never thought I’d see mine. (AXs)
Faith in people was my lesson of the day. Anyone else pull this stunt and get away with it?

My wife didn't close the door on the truck bed. Get to the deli and see my poles sitting on the liftgate..skis where in there but would not have fallen out..my poles on the other hand. Her reply..I thought you needed to get back there again...hmmm...you were last one there..I'm sitting in truck and we drive away...yup..my fault for sure..

Not with skis rather golf clubs

Left the club and forgot my bag which was right in the rack upon my return.

Before I leave, I always double check everything is in the car. "Skis, boots, poles..." Everything else is gravy.

I'm glad your stuff was ok! How were the conditions?

Not that specific one. But I got plenty. Here's one:

I was on 87. I had to pull over to adjust something on the roof. I took off my fuçking $$ driving glasses (distance vs reading) on set them on the roof to look closely. Fixed er up and drove away.

As I get up to speed I hear this weird scratch noise from the roof. I look into the rearview and watch my specs fall off the back, and get crushed by the car behind.

"Skis, boots, poles..."

Skis, boots, poles.....helmet, goggles, gloves.....phone, wallet, keys.

That’s my standard checklist routine before making any move.

Well, and now mask.

I did fail once, left a pair of poles in the parking lot at Crystal when I left for the airport. Fortunately, I needed new poles anyway....

Last March while bat poo flu was starting to shut things down I was in Florida for a visit and golf. Told my friend in his driveway I had loaded up everything and was ready to go for the flight home. I get out of my friends truck at the airport and go to get the clubs out of the bed and they’re laying on the tail gate but hadn’t slipped the whole way out yet. We drove I-4 from Lakeland to Tampa and traffic wasn’t as bad as normal. Thank You Jesus. Could have been a total sh!t show as travel bag was packed with everything that couldn’t fit in my backpack.

I was standing at the WF drop off zone when saw a guy leaving with 2 pairs of skis in an alligator-style ski rack. The rack was open, front and back. Nobody behind him to honk. I wonder how far he got before they flew off.....maybe flying into the Ausable River if he went toward Placid.

Like Camp, I've left plenty of golf clubs behind. Now I put them in my own way back to the bag to remind me that one is on the ground.

was waiting for a ride to golf one afternoon. got golf bag ready and placed it behind my wife's car. ran in the house for a quick second only to be shocked by a loud scrapping noise. yes you guessed it. my clubs were wedged under her suv and being dragged down the driveway. I ran out of the house screaming. good thing. otherwise she would of dragged them all the way to the mall. rocket ball 3 wood had head ripped clean off. other clubs scratched to hell. bag torn up. the horror

Tried to park car in garage with Thule ski box on top. Cracked it and pieces broke off. Fortunately, Gorilla glue seems to be working so far.
