I got to the barn yesterday afternoon and found everything loose re-arranged. Winds were gusting to 60mph. Steers holding on to fence posts. Chickens had safety ropes on to keep them from blowing away. It was rough here. Just wondering how everybody else made out. :shock:
High winds.

There is an old home on the farm that was still standing. All that is left now is one wall that has the stair case attached to it and the rock chimney. The tin roof is pretty much intact but it is upside down about 100 feet north of the house. I don't know how old the house is but two years ago a 97 year old man told me he was born in that house. We had plenty of wind and thunder but not a drop of rain.

It took all the feathers off that rooster when he was blown inside the jug. We couldn't stand looking at him running around all naked. We made him a little checked shirt and a little pair of overalls. I thought that was about the funniest thing I'd ever seen untill I saw him holding a hen down with one wing and unhooking his gallises with the other. ;-)
