Just slipped on wet grass pulling fence posts last Saturday

I was out in my backyard in Austin trying to pull out some old T-posts from the fence line. It had rained the night before and the ground was super soft. Thought I had good footing but my boots just gave out on the wet grass. I went down hard and the T-post driver flew out of my hand nearly hit my truck. The whole thing was stupid because I knew better than to work out there after rain. Ended up with a bruised tailbone and a dent in my tailgate. Now I always check the ground conditions before I start any yard work and keep a pair of those slip on cleats in my truck. Anyone else have a close call with wet grass while doing fence work?

At least you now have a legitimate excuse for denting the tailgate!
