Poor planning, bad decisions, bad weather, time of day, just plain bad luck, or any combination thereof, and you can be in trouble.
And you never, EVER sigh in exasperation and exclaim, "WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT?!" Don't tempt the Fates like that...
By the way, what brand of barn boots do you wear? I've bought some that were the most uncomfortable things I've ever worn.
I'm glad you just got wet feet and didn't lose your equipment.
