I hate it when that happens

At least it didn't sink completely out of site

and you were able to retrieve the rest of the equipment

I think the picture tells the story better than I can.

We had been driving over this spot every trip to the current mill site, but it hadn't rained for a couple of weeks. After being rained off for a few days I made a run down to haul out the last load of timber, and what we thought was a nice track turned out to be a bottomless bog of doom

Luckily it only sank to the door sills and no water came inside.
It had to sit there for 2 days untill the ground dried enough so we could get the other wagon around the side of the hill and winch it out.
And it's supposed to be summer here

Oops . Did you have a sinking feeling when that happened ?

I have been in similar situations and had to be pulled out .

Holy Cow, what a bog hole. Hope you didn't hurt anything.

I had my little tractor drop out of site like that in a wet-weather creek. I had to get it out because of a threatening rain storm that would have put it under watrer. There is a picture here somewhere. We were talking about getting stuck and everybody, it seems, had an experience like that.

I sure got a sinking feeling, WV hillbilly.
