Granny, that tornado sounded scary. I always like thunder and lightening until lightening hit the palm tree across from my house. I was on the phone with my mom talking* about 5he storm , then BOOM, LIGHTENING And thunder at the same time. Ran out from and all the dried fronds are on fire. Bout scared me to death. I don’t like thunder storms any more.

Its been a couple crazy days . Mowed yesterday w/ help from my neighbor. He is a sweet person. How ever coming out of the barn w/ him just as his wife is home and looking for him kinda spoiled it. He kept standing around like he was waiting for something so I was showing him the chickens OK ? I might of told this already. I dont know. I dont think too many read me anyways so dont matter.
And I think I told about the storm we had and the tree that came down causing me to lose electric ? Just gonna add to this.
The tree, It was a tornado . I went down 700S. and it leveled a mobile home. Car door was in the tree along w/ so much debris. All that was left was the floor. Bed sheets hanging in trees. It was terrible and right where I seen the tree go it touched down as well. Snapped a HUGE pine like a tooth pick and a few more in that spot. That was less then 200 ft. from where I was standing.
Back to the yard, Although we got tons done I still had a couple hrs of mowing to do and rain is supposed to come in this evening. I woke up at 7am on 2 hrs sleep ready to face the day. Thought I would be really sore but decided I could try and finish mowing. Needed to go to Versailles first for meds. Getting ready and I here Tom calling to me from his room. Chills went down my spine. I knew right away something was wrong. He dont call me , if he wants something he will come get me and ask. I hurried in and there he lay on the floor at an awkward angle. My heart sunk. Robert had just went to bed for the night,Day? one hour earlier. So I tried to lift Tom a couple times . I would get him into a squat and that was as far as he could go then back down to the floor. So I went to Roberts room and said his name. I scared the hell out of him, He jumped like the devil himself was on his heels. LOL Anyway, we were able to get him up and in his bed together. He is 200 lbs. There was change laying all over the floor and I heard him ask Robert to please pick it up. Seems he had dropped it and was trying to pick it up when he fell. As I was walking out of the room I heard him tell Robert, " There is $27.00 saved up in there, I want to get your mom something for mothers day . Broke my heart. and my back, arms, neck... No mowing today it seems

Oh gosh, that is scary Granny! Does he need a walker or something?

OMGosh Twist !! Double congrats. LOL Sounds really stupid but I was sitting here about 20 mins ago w/ Tom watching bowling and its 2 girls competing and I kept hollering Its Twins ! Its twins ! It wasnt though. LOL

H20, Cap, I wasnt scared at the time. I still love a storm. I remember thinking that was weird. I was told what I seen was the tornado skipping? Like a rabbit. touch down jump back up touch somewhere else.. So I only seen it for a brief second .
Tom has a walker Cap. Has canes, has a hard head. Gotta keep reminding him to use it.

in case your wondering BOTH goldens calved to day Choice (older one) finished just before I got out there. So Choice is both a momma and a grand momma today.

I/we think both calves are heifers. probably names are Gold Dust and Gold or Golden Ingot. Both calves are goldens and one is a trim.

Gold Mine
