It's always in the last place you left it.

I own 3 or 4 of every tool that I use. I very seldom can't find something for not having it (my problem is my helpers not putting thing back where they belong) one of the fastest ways to piss me off is for me to go for a specific tool and having to search high & low for it because it wasn't put back properly. Well that or finding it not cleaned up after the last use. OCD with a touch of autism is a bitch to live with.

I look at the farming, ranching game, like taking a half bucket of cash into a poker game.
I you walk out with a full bucket, you don't care so much about the lost hands.

No offense Sam, but how do you lose TWO. chains? It ain't like you you use both of them at the same time very often, is it? Pat, very valid question. Last time I remember using those chains was early December. Replacing a rotted off railroad tie on a section of feed bunk. You dig around what is left of the stump, wrap a chain around it and hope it pulls out of the ground. If it don't you keep digging. Wrap the 10' 5/16"s around the stump, had the longer 3/8" chain looped around the loader tractor bucket. Normally they are kept on my farmer pickup but lately I have been driving a bale bed and had the chains on the back. Can't remember where in the hell I left them.

Have you done any offroading with the bale bed where they could have just slid off?

For me lately, it’s been the battery charger
I use it in to charge the battery on my RV trailer, my quad, and the side by side during the winter, all parked at different locations on the property. The charger gets rotated from one battery to another.
It has never left my acreage, but dammed if I can find it for days at a time. Never can remember which battery it’s charging.
Found it yesterday by the Christmas tree with the light out front. I looked all over my property for days looking for it. I musta set it down to mess with the lights and went back in the house…………

Lived with a buddy that fed cattle with his dad. Had chains on the tractor tires till it froze. Couldn't remember where he put them but remembered when he speared a bail with the bucket bolt on forks and dumped the whole works into a tub grinder

I found a 10mm socket in my yard today by my well hydrant. Not from a set I’ve ever owned. Win some, lose some I guess.

I used to have two 8 pound splitting mauls beat on one with the other and I could split about anything. Till one disappeared after tearing the place apart a couple times I think I can declare it officially lost. Or stolen that's the bad part wondering if it was my fault, or not.

I swear my wife hides my stuff, cause she always knows where it is. I’m pretty sure she’s doing it so she can gloat over me about knowing where everything is.

Have you done any offroading with the bale bed where they could have just slid off? Thought about that but I don't know. Chains usually lay pretty flat and for whatever reason seem to hang on. Enough snow in the corners to keep them still.

Enough snow in the corners to keep them still. So it's not just a slick flatbed with no sides. I have drank a few beers and had to go back and find stuff a few times. 3 buds out on night, 1 of which is a paraplegic and in a wheel chair. They were drinking and having a good time, went back to drop Steve off and his wheelchair wasn't in the back of the truck. Back track time!! Found it though.

Lost a $1,300.00 rol air gas air compressor off the back of my truck 2 weeks ago. Left the tail gate down, got an emergency call and took off like a bat out of hell. Got to my destination and saw tailgate down and realized I’d seriously fugked up. Retraced route and nada. Thank God I have a couple back ups. You could have borrowed Sam's chain to tie it down with.........

Lost a brand new Council Pulaski in the snow hunting Colorado many years ago. I was pissed for awhile.
