Yes I can relate, I once put one tine of the pitch fork into my foot while moving loose hay before bailers were affordable.

For this Friday's feature the subject is a cargo ship. When I went home and opened up my newspaper to my surprise I saw a scene that I had taken photos of myself at the same point in time as did the newspaper photographer.

FWIW, I picked it up on a visit to the campus of Kansas University for an Explorer Scout Conference.
The visit was particularly memorable as it was the first and only time I saw a tornado. As the bus rolled into Lawerence, Kansas there was a twister swirling in the distance.
At the Explorer Scout Conference I was asked to report on the role of the Explorer Scouts in providing assistance to the Civil Defense efforts immediately after that same year's 1964 Good Friday Earthquake. Below are several of the photos I had taken that were included in my slide show presentation. Two of the Explorer Scouts providing assistance as we delivered incoming Ham Radio messages are pictured in the center photo:
