[AT] Portland Ind. Show

Wed Aug 26 13:33:42 PDT 2020

The one good thing out of these storms is that we got about 1/2 inch of 
rain late this morning. We really needed it and we could use another 2-3 
inches. Right now the predicted storm track will be pretty far east of 
us. For those of y'all in the path, evacuate if you can, but whatever 
you do, stay safe. You are all in my prayers for safety and minimal 
damage. I cannot imagine Bo's situation, having spent an entire lifetime 
building your life and possibly having it wiped out in the blink of an 
eye. Here's praying that that doesn't happen, Bo. And the same gos for 
the rest of y'all in the path.
