We made it through the storm just fine.  Just minor debris 
in the yard and a tree down here and there in the area.
Looks like the creeks and rivers will flood later in the week
as they drain down but it won't affect my house.

Hope you are ok Al?  I know you got worse than we did.

Life is good.

I forsee some stuck combines over the next couple weeks if you guys get 
the foot of rain they are calling for. We've already got 5" and it keeps 
raining harder with more wind.

I actually saw a field of beans that was cut last week, I imagine just 
as soon as it dries out early bean harvest will be in full swing.

When all this dries out (forecast has sunshine for a week), it will be 
time to try to harvest one last cutting of hay---the newest tractor we 
use is 44 years old!
