THey might be more salvagable cause it is fresh water, if they are not under water for too long.

I know what you are saying Ray, but they were trying to prioitize each and every trip out of there with trailers. Family furniture, dining room tables that have been around since the early 1900's, beds, and so on and so on. He did get some of his equipement out, but it is what it is. They actually got cut off from the access to the property by road before everything went under. We think the deer were there for several days around the house/barn on the high ground before it got up this severe this morning.

We were able to get both of my grandpa's tractors running after Rita hit. It took some work but we were able to get them up to speed in just a few days and they didn't need any major mechanical work done.
