Our crops got washed and drowned out but that is nothing compared to the 4000 homes in Cedar Rapids that were damaged, 2000 needing to be destroyed now. This mess started December 1 with an ice storm and hasn't quit yet. Going to be a longggggg year.
hey farmdad how bad were you hit by the storm

Well if you really want to go, when I lived in Baton rouge I would think nothing of driving to Destin for the weekend. Course fuel was a lot cheaper then.

I'm so damn close, if I am still among the living it will be a crying shame if I can't be there next year. When I think of the miles some of you drove and what at least one of you went through it makes me feel guilty for not going this year.
