A Sad Day in Collins, IA
All of you have been very kind to me concerning my property. Sadly, early this morning, we had 100 MPH sustained winds that destroyed my beloved barn. I do not cry at the loss of inatimate objects, but came very close when I looked out, and in the lightning flashes, saw she had given way. The Cubs turned out OK. The 1450 had a door blown in on it, and the Spirit of 76 had a bunch of sheet metal land on it. No damage otherwise.
We spent the day clearing tree debris and getting the chicken run fixed up again. No family was hurt, which is the important part.
For the time being, I am going to use her scrap to build a temporary shed for the garden tools and tractors, as well as a temporary chicken coop until we can afford a nicer building in it's place.
