Hail Storm 8/26/2021

 We had the worst hail storm last Thursday that I have ever seen. Golf ball to baseball size.  Every rig and car in the resort has some sort of damage, and all of the buildings at Hart Ranch have damage.  https://www.keloland.com/news/local-news/hart-ranch-resort-sees-major-hail-damage-after-a-severe-storm/

We haven't heard the $$ number for the motorhome yet, but there are 35+ holes in the roof that Mike has taped over, the passenger side mirror is broken, the tail lights are broken, the skylight over the shower is broken, and many of the light fixtures were leaking. The awnings over the slides are shredded, and the big shade awning has holes along the rail where it connects to the motorhome. We're lucky that's all it is.  If the windshield on this had smashed, we could have had major water damage to the electronics on the dashboard.

Geico totaled the car - $21,000 in damage.  The windshield is smashed, the sunroof is gone (luckily, we don't think water got into it), a headlight is broken and a taillight is broken.   We're waiting on the numbers for this; we want to buy it back from them.  We're getting the windshield replaced next week - and we'll get the rest fixed back in Georgia.

The storm was very scary, and luckily no one was injured.  It's just very stressful trying to figure out how we're going to get it all fixed.

Here's a link to the pictures of the damage:

Mike says he's not sure he wants to come back to Hart Ranch next year.
