Yeah, it sucks. With the freeze coming tonight and what happened last night, the wheat crop is probably ruined. Nothing to do but make hay out of it next month when the heads develop. People are scrambling for hay now.

Yea, hay was already scarce due to how much everyone has had to feed this winter. Most of the wheat around us isn’t even going to make much hay this year either because it’s just too thin. We’re going to have to cut our irrigated wheat for hay this year.

Temps in the low 20's last night just about sealed the deal here for no wheat crop.

My mother’s boyfriend’s house is a total loss in Putnam. It burned completely to the ground Friday. All that’s left is the stem wall.

The fire burned up to 2 miles of my Grandfathers ranch by Crawford.

Sad deal for everyone involved out west.

Man, sorry to hear about their loss. There is nothing left after a fire. All memories, gone.
