Shari... Just before I read your post... My mp3 started playing Rascal Flatts' "Mayberry"...
we have had plenty of random horses come meandering into the yard....usually, you know who they belong to and give them a call and say "Hey, Trigger's here. Hayed and watered in the lot." If ya don't know who they are? You stick them in the lot, anyway... An occassional cow. Lots of dogs.
Don't break down on the road, either. Your cell phone will explode with incoming calls. Same with getting pulled over.
My older truck is a very distinct color. I let the boys take it to Homecoming the first year they went. I got reports for weeks afterwards asking why I was here or there at this time or that...
Its also pretty usual to go home and your trailer is gone. No reason for alarm, unless no one calls you by dark. Usually there's a voicemail or note.
we once had a man ride by on a very large blonde mule. The whole town was in a buzz cause no one knew the man OR the mule.... lol
And in our case, the lady who takes the utility bills in town would know...and that might be the deciding factor for me!
