Another rocking chair memory,

would have to be an 'Oh Wow' moment from several years ago. Back before we hunted Snake River Ranch, we used to scout out new, likely looking, elk hunting territory, when we decided a 'new place' was in order. Matt and I were doing a weekend scouting/camping trip up in the Flattops Wilderness area, and were in the middle of nowhere, on a 'semi' 4WD trail when we ran over a sharp rock and tore up a tire. Matt had just gotten the Bronco, and I wasn't too worried 'cause we had a good spare and the necessary jack and lug wrench. We also had, we noticed for the first time, an anti-theft lug nut on each wheel. The kind that takes a special 'key' that fits in the lug wrench. What we didn't have was the 'key'. We decided to walk in different directions, to high ground, and see if there were any ranches/people around. After a long walk we both made it back w/the same news. Nothing in sight. And the sun was going down. The road was too bad to drive with a flat tire, so we realized we were gonna be there for awhile. About dark we heard an old pickup rattling toward us, with a couple of 'real' cowboys in it. They tried to help get the lug off with a pipe wrench and vice grip, but no luck. Just as they were getting ready to leave, one of them noticed an old 'key' in his tool box, from a locking lug nut set he once owned. What are the odds is would be the right manufacturer, AND the right 'key' as they sold several different ones? Well, we had an 'Oh Wow' moment when we found it was THE right one. We fixed the tire, continued on our trip, and still, to this day, can't believe our incredible luck. OR, we just had someone watching over us. Who knows....
