The morning that I first saw the destruction scene of our farm was
shocking to say the least. I looked around, but I didn’t look too
closely. It was hard to take it all in.
When I went back to the farm later that day, I looked around and I looked around closely. I could still see make out the milk house where I once stood washing up machines. I could still see several drinking cups, where I once stood as I swept up before chores. I could still see the first boxstall pen, where I once backed up the entire barn cleaner. I could still see into the calf barn, where the pens once stood. But you know what else I saw? I saw one remaining calf pen still standing.
How this happened, I’m not sure at all. Nearly everything surrounding the calf pen is burnt to the ground. Aftermath
This calf pen that remains standing is such an incredible example of what we need to do.
Even when everything that this calf pen knew was gone and burned to the ground, it remained standing. Even in the midst of chaos, ice and snow, it remained standing.
And that’s exactly what we’re going to do as a farm and a family.
We will remain standing as everything that we knew was burned to the ground. We will remain standing in the midst of chaos, ice and snow. And we will continue to remain standing through whatever else comes our way.
