How about a little fun for a change? Today at lunch, several of us were discussing some funny, strange or bizarre stories that have happened to us over the years. I'll share one with you and hope that some of you might want to share some stories with us. But first, my story.
Several years ago, my partner and I had two listings on a lake in our town. One day we went to the property to take photos of the two houses - one was a small cottage and other was a home on the lake itself. I stopped at the cottage first to explain that we were going to take some photos and we were going to the big house first. The occupants agreed that this would be ok and we went to take our photos. After we finished with the big house, we stopped back at the cottage. It was a hot, August day - probably in the high nineties. There was a scraggly, old dog on the porch as I walked up to the cottage. I was holding the dog back with my foot as I knocked on the door. A voice told me to come in. I said, "do you want the dog in or out?" The lady answering said, "It doesn't matter." So I let the dog walk in with us. In the next few seconds, several things went through my mind. As I looked around the room at the renters who were there, there was a grandmother, her adult daughter and the daughters baby who was lying on the floor getting its' diaper changed. The dog immediately walked over to the baby and started sniffing its face. Everyone (including the baby) seemed to have a strange look on their faces. I said to the grandmother, "That is your dog isn't it?" She answered, "It's not our dog." I immediately picked up the dog and put him outside. When I returned to the house, I asked the grandmother, "why did you let the dog in the house?" She responded, "We thought it was your dog." I explained to her that we didn't take dogs with us on appointments.
That's it. It probably seemed funnier at the time. But what about your stories?
