The Deters Dairy had some interesting weather on Sunday evening.
As we were eating dinner all of a sudden the wind came up fast and I saw cardboard flying past the windows. John saw a calf hut go flying and we all ran for the basement. As we were heading downstairs the wind threw something against the window hard enough to break it. We stayed downstairs for a few minutes until it was decided that the event was over and we headed upstairs to check out the damage.
This is the only real damage the house received.
Calf huts were scattered hither and yon along with other bits and pieces.
This door is supposed to be hanging up covering that opening you see in the background.
A calf shed used to be here but is completely gone.
So was it a tornado? It seems likely since they were in the area. I don’t thing a determination will ever officially happen. Next however is the fun of clean up.
We have 50 calf huts and they all have to been hauled home. I believe 1 or 2 are still missing. One was retrieved from 1.5 miles away.
The window had been boarded up. This makes my kitchen seem very dark.
Getting the doors out of the way under the watchful eye of Brownie the dog.
All in all it has been quite the adventure.
