Dougo, you're a treasure. Even with all the damage, good spirits abound.
Dougo is a trooper, he even kept his signature commical sarcasm going. When you have faith, it allows you to look at thing's like this, vent it out a bit, but then realise that it can be replaced. Nikki has been gone a year this week, and that kind of loss dwarfs this. My sister lost her husband to cancer last September, she's 52, and her youngest daughter home is 11, and their house was taken out in gaylord, michigan a few day's by a tornado. Many of the home's were levelled, but my sister is staying with friend's until they insurance decides what to do. God bless.
That was common from the 50's
@@dogcreek8547 Dougo was born around 1968-1970.
ya got TWO CHOICES....
you get all jaked up out of shape and anxious paniky and MESSED UP...
or
KEEP YOUR COOL AND JUST TRUDGE ON doing what ya gotta do....
just keep swimming just keep swimming...
IT IS YOUR CHOICE IF YOU ALLOW ANY THING TO MESS WITH YOUR JOY/LOVE/COMPASSION !!!!! free will free choice, YOUR CHOICE.... ;)
gettin all worked up has it place, like BEFORE BATTLE... not during normal days... NO WORRYS, NO STRESS, NO FEARS, that don't mean go out and be STUPID WITH NO FEAR..... just means don't LET anything cause unwanted NEGATIVE emotions/feelings... ;)
Yes, he and Amy both are treasures.
The world needs more Dougo... willing to have a generator in his truck to take care of his neighbors.
As long as everyone is ok, things can be rebuilt. I'm hoping that you all recover, quickly.
As if y'all didn't have enough to deal with.... Praying for you and your community.
Heartbreaking to see. I guess the most important thing is that everyone is safe. I can’t imagine the impact this will have to the farm and crop. Prayers to you all.🙏
In the highs and lows of your lives you’ve shared with us your viewers your joy, sorrow and pain. What you do is more than Youtubing, this is a community. God bless you Lawson family, you are all in our thoughts and prayers.
what do thoughts and prayers do? Ever work?
SO sorry for all the damage you all received!! Thank God no one was hurt!!! Take care of yourself Doug and all of you. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you. I"m sure Chet is really upset too. Hope Toby is ok!! We just love him!!
Sorry to see all the damage. Makes me realize how lucky we were here in the Elbow Lake area. Minor damage here with a tree down here & there. You go 10 miles south & you start seeing more damage. I'm sure glad everybody is okay. Hope you are able to get your bin site repaired in time for harvest. I hope the weather turns & you can get the crops in.
🙏🏼
I wish I lived closer, I would come and help with clean up and rebuild. I farmed in Idaho for many years and know the hard times also. I have been a building contractor for 50 years. Doug, Amy, and Chet, you have been through alot this past year. I'm impressed with your faith and strength to move forward. Hope crops can be planted and rebuild can start. Chet, I loved working with my Dad
for many years farming and building. There is nothing better than working along side family and getting the work done. Amy your faith has touched my life. I find great faith in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Doug I admire your strength and leadership and hard work . My the Lord Bless each of you.
Mother Nature has not agreed with you guys this year. Just remember, tough times don’t last, tough people do! Fingers crossed for a quick and easy recovery 🙏
i love this comment
So many thousands fly over this country, the heart-beat of the USAmerica and never for one moment realize how blessed they are with for the rock harden producing souls on the ground that will pick themselves up and piece back together this hick-up in their living standard and get back to plowing again soon after just three minutes of blowing hell that erased hundreds of combined years their time of sweat and toil. Thank You King of Heaven for their strength. 071422.
Duggo, I’m so sorry for you , the family and all the residents of your county. You took a huge hit . Even with insurance and workers hard at work, this will take a while to get back to normal. I imagine when everything is restored the place will look great again. Is there any way to give your buildings and equipment more protection from the elements? Missed Chet , Eric & Brody . I’ll bet their pretty bummed ☹️ out as well. Well, thank you Duggo for letting us get a glimpse of your personal life and the struggles you face . Take care and I will keep waiting for each new episode of the restoration process. Paul - St Petersburg, Florida
... Michigan here Douggo will overcome these setbacks
Doug, Glad you and your family survived the storm. God bless you all.
Sorry about your loss on the farm. Everyone is OK that's what's important.
The beavers use steel now is the funniest thing I heard all day
“Be a farmer” they said. Watching your videos makes me appreciate the simple life I have and people have no idea how hard it is for you farmers. Thanks for all you do and sending prayers.
Stay tough Amy. We're praying for you.
Glad you are all ok. Tough times, you'll get through it. God bless you all.
My heart goes out to all of you. Couldn't help but get tears in my eyes.
so glad that everyone are safe and doing well. thank you Doug
I'm glad that y'all decided to share what happened around the farm. I have others that I watch as well up your way and yes they had some damage as well. Glad to see that everyone made it through and that y'all are still in good spirits. Will keep y'all in my prayers.
Thank God you guys are all ok. Our prayers are going out to you and everyone in the area. God Bless
So devastatingly cruel. Nobody deserves to go through this at a time where everything is in flux. Thank you for letting us into your lives. We know it can't be very easy at a time like this. Our thoughts are with you.
So sorry for what happened...thank you Dougo for your positive attitude !!!!
The spread and severity of the damage is astounding. Good job documenting that to share with us Dougo! Here's hoping everyone can recover as best as they can quickly.
Hang in there Doug it is hard to see all you have worked for but you have a great family and support from around the world you will build back better god bless you and your family
It's good to see you keep your spirits up Dougo. It's just stuff, everything will get replaced that is still needed.
Dougo, thanks for the tour. Our thoughts are with you. Hope for a speedy rebuild.
Staying in high spirits amidst the damage! You’re inspiring! Praying for you all
Dougo you've come a long way youtoubin' !! Like a pro .... Keep it up and best wishes to you and yours!
Only Dougo can make us laugh while examining tornado 🌪 damage
@@hobman 100% agree
My heart goes out to you and the damage that you've shown and assessed wow I hope everything is going to work out for you in the long run hopefully it feels stay wet for a little bit longer so maybe you can get some of these repairs taken care of especially Grandpa's house got to keep them dry love what you do love watching you been following you for 2 years you people are the greatest I'm retired Carpenter electrician plumber etc etc etc man of all trades if I wasn't so busy right now I'd be down there working for food just to help you guys out repair fix. Headed out to Iowa next week to visit family and friends maybe we'll stop by
Dougo and Amy, I am so sorry for your family's losses. Lots of love for your family, friends and your farming community.
Back in November of 2005 a blizzard with strong winds swept out of South Dakota and through central Nebraska. Hundreds of center pivots and countless structures were damaged. It was very discouraging and overwhelming to look at but we somehow got through it and your area will as well. Wish you the best as you finally get to the fields.
That’s what we like about you Dougo … Your sense of humor even in time’s like this… Glad y’all are okay.. Hopefully Toby didn’t panic too much…. Lol
Glad no one was injured. Prayers for dry weather for your crops to get planted. Larson Strong Forever. ...... Friendship and UA-cam nation will help you when called upon...
WOW!! That's pretty rough!! It is amazing, and frightening, what nature can do, to what man can build!! This is something else. I did not hear of any deaths or injuries so that is good. All of this "can" be rebuilt !! I am happy that you are all safe and sound!! Thanks for the tour and prayers to you and yours.
Glad to see everyone made it out safe. The things can be repaired/replaced.
Prayers for all Chet I think you have some competition with your dad on video great job Dougo
Amazing calmness for the situation you’ve been given. God’s strength to you Dougo
Bless you, your family and crew, no one was injured and thankfully, no one lost their life.
No matter how bad and destructive things are, you are strong people and you will persevere.
Many thoughts and prayers for you.
We all love you and hope things improve sooner, rather than later.
Glad you guys are ok things can be replaced lives can’t god bless everyone thanks for sharing
I hope no one in the community was injured. Sheds and bins can be replaced. You're a tough family, you will survive. Prayers for all.
Dougo you and your wife have one of a good disposition to keep up your good humor in the middle of all that tragedy.. may GOD bless you and get you on your feet again soon.....
I knew that y’all had some bad storms up there earlier this month. Wow! Just WOW! I have been praying for all of you! Over the past several years I have seen you go through more than most families go through in their lifetime. You are a strong family and the Lord knows you can handle it and this newest hurdle will make you all even stronger. Together!! I will continue to pray for each of you! 🙏
Man, I absolutely hate to see so much damage! Praying for a speedy recovery fam. Glad you guys are ok!
Sorry to see all the damage. Relieved you are all survived. You all have good spirits You will bounce back. Praying 🙏 for you.
Dougo, I have been through some storm "stuff" . This vlog brings back the sick feeling. Feel for all of you. Hopefully things will get it all sorted out.
Hello from Oregon, Our family is great full your all alive and will some how get threw the horrible cost of loss. Most Oregon Farm's are up for sale and we sure can't loose anymore. God be with you all in our hardest time's ever right now. Hug to anyone who needs one.
i'm sorry to see this man, good luck with the rebuild!
Sorry for the lost of everything from that storm and hope everyone is doing ok
I must say I'm so taken back by what you guys are dealing with. Not just destructive storms but now having to get your crop planted. I feel for ya. As a farmer myself I can't imagine the stress this is causing your family and all your fellow farmers around you. Nice to see your good sprits.
Good luck to you from us up here in central Alberta.
Hi Dougo,
Thank you for showing all the devestation to your farm and equipments & property, it breaks my heart to see it like that, knowing all the generations of hard work and fortitude you have all put into how it was looking before the staorm, now where do you even start to begin to put all that damage right, and i hope you are well insured, although that doesnt always cover everything, my heart goes out to you all, try to keep smiling, best wishes to you all. From uk.
Such a disaster area. Hopefully there were no injuries. Going to be a difficult year for many farmers in your area. Sorry to hear about all the damage.
So Sorry to see all the damage. I have been wondering if you lived through the tornados. Now I know.
Doug what a great family spokesman you are. Amy and you are so sweet together. Thank goodness no one was hurt.
DOUGO and AMY the two of you are just to awesome to describe . taking the time to share with us the impact your family and friends are dealing with. i truly admire your spirit. GOD BLESS and be safe
Sad to see all the damage, but still what a beautiful place to live.
I'm glad everything that was damaged can be repaired or replaced. We had a similar storm go through southern Ontario last Saturday afternoon. I've never seen so much damage, we were without hydro and everything had to be run off a generator for five days.🇨🇦🌬🔌🔦💡
Dougo, you did a fine job of sharing the damage to the farm and your family. I hope that everyone is insured and it will take time and effort to make the repairs needed. I'm glad everyone is safe and hope you all get electrical soon. Can't imagine what is needed to get taken care of first.
I'm one of your Oklahoma subscribers and we certainly feel for you and can relate. It sure did a number on you all. Glad everyone is safe.
I’m sorry to see you have so much damage I hope you guys get it all back together
I was SO thankful that my parents were okay several years ago when a tornado hit the home place. I told them, the only thing that mattered was that they were okay. As we turned the corner and started seeing the trees down and buildings gone, my heart sank! The tornado took EVERYTHING around their house, God protected them (my Mom in a wheelchair & my Dad was deaf and didn't hear it). So very thankful you are all okay, but know it's a gut punch Dougo, I feel for you and your family. Hang in there!
No such thing as "god" , thats rubbish no offense.
Sorry for your troubles. Glad every one is ok. Great video Dougo
Thank You for sharing this with us.
Thank God none of your family was injured. I know it is a very emotional time for your Family. Prayers for all in the community 🙏🙏🙏
So sad to see all the damage,but these things can be repaired and replaced given time,as long as families and friends are all ok
Our prayers go out to you and your entire community. Not many years ago, when I was still in high school, we got hit by a tornado also. When we came out the next morning to see 2 buildings and 3 grain bins flattened, I actually started to shake thinking we would never be able to recover. I remember Grandpa coming over and saying, " AJ, everything you see here is just possessions. They can be replaced. We can rebuild and will only be out time and some money. Two towns over, people died last night. Those are the folks we need to worry about. " The reason I bring this up is that the Larson family is a good moral family and I know you will recover from this terrible event. Thank God you are all safe!
My heartfelt prayers to the Larson families!!!!
So sorry for all of your terrible terrible damage.
Am so glad all of you are safe!!!!! Material things can be fixed or replaced but having someone hurt is another story.
Once again, so glad you ALL are ok and safe.
I am beyond words at all of your damage. So sorry.
Dougo, so respect you for your attitude toward this situation. You are hanging in there and taking things a step at a time. Your upbeat attitude about all of this is to be admired.
Just get things fixed as you can. Step at a time.
Your bin situation would seem to be of concern for the harvest time. Knowing you, you will come up with a plan.
Will leave you alone now. You have your hands full.
So sorry for your damage loss.
My prayers to all of you.
May god watch over you.
The Iowa farm boy.
Steve.
Dougo, thanks for doing this video. Know it was not easy to do.
Heartfelt thanks.
Thanks for the tour, sorry for all the damage but glad everyone is ok!
Use synthetic felt 😜 it’s much better. There’s a terra-cotta shingle in Owens Corning. GAF has a Patriot Red if you can get hands on it. Architectural shingles of course. Sorry to see the weather do so much damage to you guys. Hopefully everything goes well when it goes back together for you!
A steel overlay will outlast Chet.
I grew up on a dairy farm, I feel for you I'm really sorry this has happened. I was just wondering, as I don't know, are there braces going across the silos or whatever you guys the grain bins you guys use the grain silos? If not it wouldn't hurt
Been waiting for this video, Dougo thanks for the share. Praying for you and everyone for a safe recovery.
So sorry for the loss, you are in our prayers!!
So sorry to see the damage. God is with you all. 🙏🙏
I want the Larson's to succeed. Also for Nicki
no such thing as "god"

After seeing Zach’s footage, I’ve been so worried about your farm. What a horrible year for Minnesota farmers in your area. Too wet to plant, then a freaking tornado destroys the farm. DURING a massive supply shortage. What a travesty.
What’s the scrap price on steel & aluminum these days?
Good luck to you all rebuilding your farms and community. It's so inspiring watching you being so good spirited despite all the chaos.
WOW ! 😳 Dugo... My heart goes out to all of you, your friends & neighbors.
I wish I could help you in some way...
Las Vegas, NV.
It's been a tough year for farmers it seems everywhere. Rain, storms and cold weather. Gonna be a struggle bus man.
biggest struggle is the destruction being done by our public servants actions.
@@thublit Well that but the weather did a number this year. Gonna be tough on farmers who need those crops in order to feed mouths and theirs.
Praying for y’all hope y’all get everything back like y’all want it
I appreciate your honesty about everything and your great attitude towards life not everyone handles as you guys have been doing
So happy obviously you guys are ok, LOVE your spirit and attitude in tough times!
Glad everyone is OK. Bins and building can be repaired or replaced. I know for the time being it really sucks but you guys will regroup and probably be better than ever!
Mother Nature sure wasn't being nice to y'all!
Praying for your full recovery. I hope insurance covers the repairs. Take care Larson farms much love to all Please keep farming we really need you
The question is which price does the insurance pay. Do they pay the $50,000 it used to cost to build a shed or do they pay the $100,000 it costs today. My guess is they pay the "value" at assessment which if it was pre covid prices would be a huge difference. Dunno maybe a farmer will answer
Thanks for the video Dougo!!!! You are getting really good with the camera and speaking. 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dougo, I know exactly what you are going through. I lived through the second worst Tornado in Canada. Tore my roof off, ripped off all my siding, demolished my garage, took my shed & blew it 17 miles to the west. We were without power for 3 days. It is forever known as Black Friday July 31,1987. 27 people died & did a $ Billion dollars in damage. God Bless & take care. Thank God no one was hurt.
It still puzzles me greatly that in the richest country in the world, they still hang power lines etc. in the air despite the fact they suffer extreme weather such as tornados. In Scandinavia we dig everything in the ground and we never have tornados! It just makes no sense.
It is much easier to install and fix when problems occur, and the size of the infrastructure to build is much greater than in Scandinavia.
People are miles apart the cost would be unreal to bury them. Poles are cheap
Cost twice as much to bury lines, there are close to three times more lines in the US aswell. Would take decades of work.
@@csaunderson The point it, when you put it in the ground it is protected and you will not need to fix it, especially after a tornado visits! Also, you are the richest country in the world - you can afford putting it in the ground like we do, even at larger scale and you will save a lot of maintenance cost.
@@_-martin-_ some ground isnt the best for underground systems as well. Some areas have high water tables and other obstacles which makes it easier to have over head. Lots of new developments have urd systems which is over head to the development then transitions to underground. Also in states where they salt the roads for winter it destroys the insulation on the cable and causes burnouts. I use to work for one of the biggest utility companies in the world.
Zach Johnsons farm got destroyed too, but it was just the derecho wind not any tornados like the title says
There was a tornado went thru about a mile from Zach. Straight line winds at his farm site. The NWS confirmed 16 tornados (and still surveying damage) within that storm. The definition of a derecho is a damage swath a minimum of 60 miles wide and 240 miles long . Gives you an idea of how large of an area was hit.
it wasnt destroyed. A shed and a grain bin blew over. Dont exagerate
Thanks for the tour.
Dougo! OMG! Thanks for the tour. Humor will win the day.
We need to get you on the road to perform stand-up. Keeping a sense of humor will get you through all the damage. Sorry to see all the destruction the storm caused. I got tired just watching you point out all the destruction. Lots of replacement/repairs are needed. Insurance helps, but as we know, there is always lots of work on top of everything even if you have coverage.
Over the years, all of you have worked very hard to set up the fields and establish a homestead. Thankfully, you have Chet, the Big Swede, and Brody to help out now. I’m sure most of us that follow you believe that you all will be able to rise to the challenge and begin the process of rebuilding, while at the same time getting ready to plant. If only the general public knew how difficult farming is. Hats off to you all, including mom and pop.
🙏🏻
Hope everyone is okay.
Sorry for your loss on your property. Glad to see that you are all safe. Prayers to all of you and your neighbors.
You and your family are very resilient and strong!
Good Video Dougo and Amie, lots of clean up. That’s the kind of storms we get in Texas did not
know you all got them up in your part of the country. All you can do is rebuild and try to make
everything a little stronger. Brace buildings more and the bins not sure you can do anything more on them.
This biggest thing is it looks like all your family was not hurt, you have to Thank God for that.
Prayers go out to you and your family stay safe and keep plugging on we are rooting for all of you
Sorry about your losses, understand your frustration. Your farm is always upgrading and improving, then this sets you back. It will get better.
Thanks for the video. Glad you are all safe and no one hurt. I was having trouble hearing with the volume all the way up. Take care
Heart goes out to you. Farming hard enough without storm damage like that.
Soooooo sorry Larson Farms team and family.....America needs our farmers, ranchers and drivers.....many many thoughts and prayers for you to dig out and rebuild....love the peace under stress DougO....I wish I was close enough to come help “ for free” but I am many states away. Thanks for taking us along!!!! We feel your pain when we watched the video. Heart felt support for your community
So sorry for your loss Dougo. Hope everyone is alright. Praying for you guys. 👍👍👍❤️
You are some of the smartest farmers on UA-cam and your operation is second to none. You will recover and find away to emerge from this stronger than ever! You certainly have a busy summer cleaning up but we will all be here rooting for you in the comments section.
