Thanks to everyone for your concern and kind wishes. In case you missed my Facebook post, my husband had a bad morning Thursday. Anxious to do his spraying of weeds, he turned short on a seldom used enterance to his bean field and the sprayer tipped over. The hitch broke and his tractor and he are ok.
By law you have to call within a certain time and report this chemical spill. The Sherif's office, the Emergency Management Dept,and Dept of Natural Resources,
.sent out personel to make reports and oversee the accident followed by Whitemore Truck and Trailer who came to help with hoisting up the sprayer to it's upright postion. Friday Earles Excavating came to dig up the dirt that had to be hauled away and disposed of according to the laws of our land.
Assessing the damages. The yellow container has a hole in it, the big arms are broken. It's no doubt a total loss. It is a fragile piece of equipment. Hoping insurance will cover a replacement. And I'm sure there's more to come with paper work.
The best part of this is my husband is ok and had no injuries, and I am very thankful for that.

WOW Sylvia, feel so bad for your hubby. But I'm so glad no one was hurt. I will pray for your insurance to replace the equipment. Farmers are the best people on earth, my dad was a farmer.
