Well.. no livestock losses. As usual, I put my delicate fowl in the barn, and kept the horses stalled.. and the bovine in the corall in case an exterior fence went down. I only had to make very minor repairs to the barn.. just tapping a few nails in on loose boards.. etc. We have power, and spotty telephone service.
Most of marion county faired much worse. LOTS of trees and lines down. And unfortunately I saw lots of mobile hoom roofs and awnings laying in streets.
I went out yesterday to die down the barn door, and looked over at the neighbors yard, just as a gust of wind ripped off the front of his barn and deposited it in his back yard. I headed on in to the house at that point.
I went over to my parents house this am, and me and my step brother installed a windo ac unit for their bedroom, and hooked it up to the generator, and also wired their well up to the generator so they can at least have water,.. and cool the house down to sleep at night.
Power company said it might be 2 weeks before their power comes back.
hope everyone else is ok.
