My two Hestra gloves and I are together again. For those of you who didn't follow the story, I lost one of these gloves in (and I quote) 'deep and wild inaccessible country above the upper part of Loch Mullardoch'. I took the chance of posting a photo and message on a FB group called 'I am Bagging the Munros', in the hope that a) someone relevant would see the post and that b) they would be in the rough area of where I lost my glove. 2 days later - a lady called Niki sent me a PM, with a photo, to say she'd found my glove. She posted it back to me. We are reunited again. :-) I don't actually know who was more excited, Niki or me!!! I wouldn't have given it more than a 1% chance of getting that glove back, but thought I had nothing to lose by trying! So glad I did.
@30pics4jackiesdiamond I carry various pairs - for every temperature! Ha ha. It wasn't a big deal to have lost one that day, as far as temperature was concerned, just disappointing to have been careless and lost such a good glove. All was well in the end, though.
There are good people in the world. Hard to believe dishonest ones would do the walks/hikes that you do, but I'm sure there are a few. Glad that you got it back.
I just love this story- reminds me of the time when Jeff left his Bible on top of our car and we drove off not knowing it was there. Several hours later someone called us asking if we'd lost a Bible! Happy shot!
What are the chances of that happening! It's just wild, I'm very happy for you that you have your glove back, and equally buoyed up by the proof that there is always a chance, don't give up. Your experience is living evidence of that. Wonderful story! And divine gloves!
