Coffee?? Maybe a stiff drink! :D

Storm came through last night. BIG winds! I have about a 12X12 section of roof on a run in, blown apart --some of it sitting almost 300 ft away. A roof panel off of main barn (fiberglass one), big feed bins scattered about. AND about 100' of fence down directly between run-in damage and where some of the tin is....:ep going to survey the rest right now.. :idunno Oh, yeah, more storms late day into night from this system. :( Can't wait. Catch you later.

Oh -- had 4 goats out, also. That was easiest resolve. :lol: A real "wake me up" morning.
Wow that is a lot of wind. I wonder if you had a microburst.

YEP -- could have been a LOT worse. All ok. Just some repairs. Closer look and there's a lot more tin to replace than estimated 12X12....more like whole one side, 12X30. Just $$ :D. It's all fixable.. Only 2 2x4's to replace, rest ok. Animals all safe. 4 fence posts (I have) & re-connect the fence. Easy Peasy.

AND it's 67 on my back porch! Been waking up to 75-80, with day to 95-98 + heat index to 105. ONLY 67 :lol: Got AC off. Save some electric. :clap 75 inside & no chance to heat up. Life is good.

Coffee -- thanks!
Up & moving along this morning. Still only 66 out :yesss: It's overcast but they say clearing later, expect 77 high. What a relief!! That cool front is hanging out for a few days and I welcome it! :D Animals are enjoying it, too.

All day rains yesterday. Light, off & on type, all needed. The extreme heat had parched the ground and we truly needed the rains. Light chance of scattered today, not likely. Things smell so clean out there. Showers work.:D =D
Hated the down time -- life with weather on a farm -- flex!

Hope everyone else is having a welcome day, today! :frow

Coffee is on!
It's another beautiful day...60 degrees this morning!
Yesterday was the most beautiful day I can remember...the sky was blue and the wind was blowing...only got to 78 degrees and no humidity. I think today will be around the same :celebrate
The bunnies sure are happy in this weather.
I checked on the little kits born yesterday and the fosters...they're all doing so well :woot
Hope everyone has a great day!
