catch some good luck

 

It's a common practice to hang horseshoes on a barn to ward off evil and bring good luck.  The owner of this shed in Mason is of the school that believes hanging a horseshoe in an upward or U position holds in all the luck and the powers it brings.  Proponents of the downward position believe it allows the good luck and protective powers to shower upon you and the surrounding home.  The doubly superstitious might hang horseshoes both ways!  Unless the intention is "shabby chic," eight horseshoes haven't brought this shed the good luck of fresh paint or new tin for the roof.  And was it good luck for those two horses that lost their shoes?
