It's not what I found...it's what I lost!

My frigging BlackBerry! I was hunting a huge area with relatively long grass for most of the morning. I decided to try another field and when I got into the car I went to check my emil and my BB and case was gone. The clip was still on my belt but the rest was gone! I checked the car and then started checking the field. I searched for an hour and then drove into town and called my wife on a pay phone and asked her to call my BB for the next hour...still no luck...it's gone! I've had a BlackBerry for the past 10 years and cannot get a replacement until Tuesday...I'm lost! The bright side is I now have an excuse to get Z10!

That sucks! I lost one the same way, when those clips break they do it in a big way.

Maybe, if you had gps turned on, your carrier might could pin it down for ya.

HH!

Sooooo, get one!

But, maybe it wasn't lost, maybe it was stolen! And now, ALL your private hunting spots are being mapped out!! ;)
 

I'll never know your pain, because I never have & never will own a mobile.:tongue3:
 

Your driving awareness should greatly improve! :)

I love good excuses (or any excuse) to buy to new crap!

Then you're a fool for not losing it sooner!


Will be funny if you're posting it as a find 10 years down the road.

Doubt it...I've given up on this particular field...looked like a million bucks but was skunko!

Yep...found it this morning! I was able to remove the SD card so may be able to salvage some pics!

Yes...it was actually quite a rush to find it. I've hunted that site at least a dozen times since I lost it and always had it in the back of my mind to find it...
