Well here goes,

when you leave your river place, or home to go:What have you forgot to do.

Two trips ago we pack up to leave the river, check overything twice and get a phone call at 9pm from the guy next door. My front door is wide open, lights off, everything tucked neatly away, just wide open.

The wife had taken one more load to the car, jumped in and off we go :stupid My friend locked up and all is good.

this morning I get a call than my storage is "unlocked"

On inspection it was locked, just not thru the latch :stupid

another call with an invintory list and all is good, the park threw one of there locks on.

Two close calls in as many trips. what the F  :eek


Any one else?????? :banghead

Left on ceiling fan for 3 weeks before... :rolleyes
.
Worst one I did was going to a friends place to stay the weekend and as I arrived at 1am we found that his power had been shut off.....but instinctively you still don't believe it, so I still tried several light switches around the house.....flick,flick,flick, on and off with the same result of nada.
Next day we left and went home to Ca and I let him know his power was off.....He makes the call to have it restored(billing error).....
might have been weeks later that he arrived late night to find his house fully ablaze in lights inside.....opps, left a few switches in the on position  :eek  :laugh  :rotflmao

About an hour and a half of leaving Cali to go to Havi, I realized  :stupid  I forgot the boat keys (boats in Havi).  





Yup.......I had to turn around and head back home to get the boat keys.

I've had to hotwire more than one buddy's boat because of that :banghead

One very early morning departure the girls decided to turn up the heat while I was outside loading up all the gear, cooler, etc.

Boy the house sure was toasty when we got home. :angry

I'd say 99.999% of the time I have unplugged it already.  :angry

The Wallet.
Realized it at La Tuna Canyon, pulled over and called the squeeze, who was coming to the river a few days later.

She left Simi valley and brought it out to us.

While we were parked along side the road,, Jay Leno pulled up and offered assistance thinking we were stranded.

Did I tell you guys about the cat?  We had this cat that was roaming around the trailer park and snuck in as we were packing up to leave.  This occurred in July.  We came back 2 weeks later and open the door and this cat flies out.  It was still alive!!  Thank God, because can you imagine how bad it would have stunk to have a dead cat cook at 150 degrees for 2 weeks?  :puke That made the little bit of crap and piss much more bearable.  It didn't have anything to eat, so there wasn't much crap.  The only place it could have gotten water from is the little bit in the toilet. I always leave the seat up when we leave now, just in case.

It's not what I forget, but what I just don't bring... :cool

I used to pack EVERYTHING for our trips, extra beach chairs, lounges, cots for sleeping, extra sun-shades, beach blankets, camp stove (for cooking on the beach), sand toys, all kiinds of rafts/floats/etc.......and etc.....and etc....

Today, it's pretty simple:
IF YOU WANT IT, YOU PACK IT OR PUT IT BY THE BOAT.  It might get out there, but not guarentees.... :laugh

Funny how they DON'T MISS IT any longer..... :D

Are you serious?  I MAKE Jeff leave his at home. I can't even count the times that builders have called him at 3:30 on a Friday while we are in 29 Palms headed east telling him that he NEEDS to take care of something that day.  Sorry.

Ok, you're gonna love this....two weeks ago my wife tells me she wants to leave the dog home this trip.

But why?, I moan.

Because it'll be too hot for him and we'll be at the wedding and besides, when we go to breakfast a Topock he sits in the boat and barks! (yes, that's us)

I say, "OK" make the reservation for the Doggy Dude Ranch.

Guess what? I'm going down the list this morning...."Hey Honey"..."did you make the reservation? you have to drop him off tonight you know".....

No reservation...she just called, he is behind on his shots...so now he has to go to the vet and they have to do an exam before they will give him shots 'cause it's been a while since they examined him.

More $$$$$$ than I expected - but then, I expected that somehow.....just didn't know where it would go! :banghead
