More loss on timer than I expected but then a lot of the farms in south Georgia were almost totally destroyed. Of course one of our gubernatorial candidates says we don't need agriculture in Georgia anyway. Prayers for the farmers down there that are facing loss of their farms now because of the damage. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |

We don't need most of these politicians either, to bad the winds don't blow them away too. ------------- 1938 B, 79 Dynamark 11/36 6spd, 95 Weed-Eater 16hp, 2010 Bolens 14hp |

| Yes and I have a sister-in-law that thinks we should open the door and take all 7,000 plus of these people marching in just like that, she's a retired school teacher and doesn't have enough cents to understand the problems of trying to take 7,000 plus people in and finding place for that many all at once. |
