Our landscape has been forever changed. Never seen anything like this, and hope to never see it again. Just got power back on yesterday and internet today. Running water to cows in the heat gets expensive when using a generator. Will never gripe about the power bill again!
Had six healthy calves the night of the hurricane. Totally amazing that they all survived. Even more amazing that even though half our fence was down, all our cows stayed put. Lost a bull for a while, but he let himself in with the cows on day three. Still no idea where he went.
Had some linemen from Canada in town too. The emergency response has been incredible!
Don't know how farmers in my area are going to make it. Cotton looks picked, irrigation turned over everywhere, pecan trees are gone, chicken houses leveled, peanut buying points were down for a week, hesitant to even consider the timber losses. Going to be a rough couple years.
M-5, you alive?
