"Pray for the Beets"

That is what Troy told Taylor and I right before he had to get in the car and leave town. The wind is blowing so hard today that he is losing his mind and most likely his beets. He was a nervous wreck on Sunday that he worked all afternoon in the tractor trying to prevent them from blowing away. Yesterday it was windy but not too bad...until about 5-ish. Then he was back to his "stressed" self. It was so bad that he had to get up last night and sleep on the office floor so he couldn't hear the wind as much (ours and Taylor's bedroom windows are bad and even worse with high wind speeds!). He left early this morning only to come back a few hours later asking what I had planned today because he was losing his mind and wanted to leave town! I had a Primary Presidency meeting so he made plans with Ryan to go to Belle Rapids (spelling???), they just bought a shop there so they headed that way to get away from seeing all the dirt flying in the air. I would have taken a picture of the horizon (mostly our fields) but he took the camera with him, so I found this picture through Google and this looks a little like it here, but it's probably worse! Pray for the farmers and their crops! Especially for Troy to eat, sleep and relax his tensed/ grinding jaw!
