Yeah Im still here, just been real busy trying to get cleaned up after the storm. We never lost power (I dont see how though) so we didnt have any damage from that, but we did have a lot of trees go down on fences and out into fields. No animals hurt, one dead sheep but thats normal. We have been sawing up trees and hauling them out. Also had a lot of flooding, it rained again about 3 inches tuesday night and put all the rivers out of the banks again. The corn is about ready to chop and two fields are close to shelling but there is no way we can get to them for at least a week with all this mud. Then I guess it was last Friday I got hit by a kid as I was turning into the shop. These kids fly up and down our road and I was piddiling along and made a left turn into the shop and he came up on me so fast I never saw him until he hit me. We hit nose to nose and the car went right under my pickup. Im fine, he had a broken nose and some busted ribs but he will be OK. Totaled his car and tore up my diesel truck pretty bad but it is still running. Trooper saw the whole deal, looked at the 10 foot black marks that he left, and the damage that was done, and he just commented that he was moving a little fast. Corse its my fault for turning into his lane and I got charged with failing to yeild, but the trooper charged me with the smallest he could. Well guess Im looking for another truck. It has been a stressful week to say the least and I just need a nap. I am just very thankful that everyone around here, and everyone that was in the storm is OK and still kickin. I will be posting more when I get a little time, sorry I have just been busy here lately.
