cow patty

I went to my father's house to help him burn a HUGE brushpile. He has about a dozen cattle on the lot where we were doing this. We started the fire right at dusk, and I would periodically use his tractor with front end loader to push the pile up towards a tree stump when the fire would die a little. After it was totally dark, I did this, backed the tractor away from the fire, and stepped off it right into a fresh, smoking cow pattie. "Dammit," said I. I then moved my left foot up and rested it on my knee so I could look at my shoe. In doing this, I lost my balance, and grabbed the rear tractor tire with my right hand to steady myself. On said tractor tire, right under (and all over) my hand, was the other half of the aforementioned smoking cow patty. I haven't seen my father laugh so hard since we saw "Under the Rainbow" at the theater.

Reminds me of a camping experience when I was young. There was a HUGE buffalo err... "Chip" on the ground, covered in flies. The outside layer of it had dried. Naturally I think to my self "Why are all these flies on this rock" So I jump, and then land... Next thing I know, I am absolutely covered in the stuff. My Grandma leads me to the river where I attempted to wash it off. Not too successfully however. I'll never forget that day =(

LOL

As a plumber, and one who often "gets some on him" I can definitely relate!

Very funny story! Thanks for sharing. I don't feel so bad now.
