Out on the farm we have to rely on each other. A few weeks ago we had a tornado out here in Tonopah. We lost some awnings and a tree but all of us were ok. After the storm we started looking around at the damage and saw these two out for a stroll. Looked like they were reassuring each other. Nothing like good friends and neighbors at a time like that!
