I've practically forgotten what that means.
Are the kiddies washing the truck?

Afternoon, Woods....got a tale that belongs in "Ripley's Believe it or Not". BIL and I were out riding today and decided to take the Interstate the last 25 miles to avoid holiday lake traffic. We're about 15 miles from home and I hit a bump and catch something black out of the corner of my eye, look in the side view mirror and see a rectangular oblect flying behind me and bouncing off the pavement. Look at my dash board cubbyhole and see it open...my *&^%^&* phone was in there. I find the next mile marker as a reference. Motion to my BIL what happened and have to go 8 miles before we can turn around. Turn around , go back to the exit before I lost my phone, get in the area that I lost it at and travel down the shoulder with flashers on at slooow speed, No Luck and I'm pissed!
\
Get home and call my son, he tells me to go to icloud and use "find my phone". I do that and it shows up but there's little refernce to exactly where. i do satellite search of area to find some point to go by. I come up with MM 15.2...Get my wife, her phone and her iPad and we go back. The iPad shows my phone location and also our actual location. We get in the area, I pull over, hazards on and start calling my phone and looking in the grass. Five minutes go by and I turn around and there's a State trooper behind my car with it's lights on. He gets out and asks my wife " Are you looking for a phone?" She says "Yes" and tells him the story...he says " It's right there ,laying on the paved shoulder...We never looked ON the pavement either time. She then tells him that our son is a Trooper, turns out he knows my sons and SIL. He said he thought we were pulled over because of a flat and had dropped the phone. Three of us had a good laugh......I'm not pissed anymore.
