Do you ever find these?
Mar 31, 2012 04:11:45 #
All of my life, I seem to find these things. I never look for them, I just walk along watching where I'm walking and see them. They just seem to jump out at me. I have found them with 4 leaves, 5, 6, and 7. No 8 leaf clovers yet. I don't bother to pick them and save them unless they have 5, 6 or 7. I have only found ONE 6 leaf clover, but many 5 and 7 leaf ones.
From me to you, the best of luck!

I find the almost daily, either walking to the barn, after I get to the barn, out in the pasture or anythime I go to visit a park or to the lake. I'm NOT looking for them, they're just there.

Was helping my wife lay some paving blocks and noticed 5 or 6 clovers with 4 leaves. I hurried to call a friend who works in a store that sells lotto tickets, asked him to buy some for me. NUTHIN'

Ace, strange you should mention that. We took 2 of our young fillies to show against each other at the world championships one year and in the preleminary class, (world champion yearling filliies class) we got 1st and 7th (out of 10 places).
When the day came to show the fillies back in the yearling GRAND championship class (against the stallions that had won in the yearly stallion championship), hubby said he was tied and didn't want to show back. Fillies rarely beat stallions in yearling classes anyway, so our best shot was for 2nd place. I was sitting on a bale of hay and looked down...right in front of the door to her stall was the bigest 4 leaf clover I ever saw. I told him YES we were going to show back in the class. We did. We won the yearling grand championship! (1st and 5th)
BUT, these 2 clovers in the picture didn't win that big lottery for me, OR any part of it!!! :lol:

haven't been looking but maybe I'll start. Just for the interest of it because I already know I was not born under a 'lucky' start so therefore clovers, rabbits foot, whatever never works for me:(

:lol: me either Deanna, but the real truth is, I don't believe in luck anyway, but perhaps they could just be a SIGN of good things to come.

I've never seen one. We must not have the right kind of clover here - ours doesn't have that white line across the leaf.

Thanks, Ace, that was several years ago. I have been blessed to have a few world champions along the way, but my "horse-of-a lifetime" was one I had only $50 in. I traded a mare (that I took in on another deal) for him as a 16 month old, broke and trained him myself, and showed him hundreds of times, winning 1st every time but four... two 2nds, a 3rd and a 5th. He was my pocket horse. I could turn him loose while I worked in the yard and he would stay within 10 feet behind me (more like 2 feet most of the time). When I said "time to go to the barn", he beat me in there. I had him 26 1/2 years and still miss him every day since '95

Just thought I'd show you a pic of my filly that won the Yearling World Grand Championship years ago. I helped with her birth, raised her, trained her. I was so proud that she beat the other fillies AND the stallions. there were 37 in her class for the championship and we were the first family ever to win TWO places in a championship at the WGC show. We got 5th with the other filly.
This picture was from the filly championship before she went back and won the GrandC.

and as WGC

I have seen a couple of 4 leaf ones over the years but nothing larger.

I used to think it was just that my yard had patches of them, but they are everywhere I go. I never search for them like some people do. I just walk along and see them as I go. Strange!

That is strange. This site says finding one, the odds are 10,000 to 1. Better grab a sack or head to the lottery ticket store.
