So very much to be thankful for today. Thankful to be alive. Thankful power is back on and we had enough resources to keep the animals fed and watered. Thankful for Laura, Amara, Virginia, & Juan for coming to be sure all went smoothly ! I’m thankful for Michael Atkins as he had the foresight to have us in the best possible position for success in this situation.
I am also grieving for neighbors just up the road who have lost so much. It’s overwhelming. Praying for all those, including rescue personnel, and saying thank you to so many for what you’re doing!!!
Mountain Mule Packer Ranch !!! Just wow !!! Mule power rocks !!
Please continue to pray for all !! 🙏🏻

Every light in the house is on,
Front yards looking like the crack of dawn,
Front walk looking like the runway lights ,
Kinda like noon at the dead of night!!
Thankful to the linemen !!!!!
