It may be Monday but this happened on Sunday.
Last night, I was walking back from the barn carrying a partial jug of cat milk, wearing my headlight because it was dark out, I had just watered and hayed up and given the kitties their "milk". A car was parked facing me with its 4 ways on but that is not unusual, It was in front of the neighbor's house and nothing really unusual A car was coming up behind me and I noticed it was a Trooper's car. The car passed me, stopped in front of my house, backed up and the officer asked what was going on. I told him I had just been to the barn and was headed back to the house. The jug had milk.

I have been pulled over in a car, once because it was night and my dog was bouncing around anxious to go home, officer said he thought it was a child and it was kind of late to have a child out like that. I was pulled over on horseback with a friend because , even though we were on the shoulder side of the white line and perfectly legal, he thought we might be a traffic hazard. This is the first time I have been pulled over for walking down the correct shoulder of the road.
