Wow, I just noticed that I haven't posted on the blog since June!! Totally unacceptable. My only excuse is that I have been absolutely crazy with weather related claims. Never is my years in Sioux Falls, have I seen the weather we have experienced this summer. Now, we did get through without too much hail which was nice but the rain and wind made up for it.
South Dakotan's like their summer weekends. We work hard and we play hard. Most of us have a summer property or have family or friends with places at the lake or on the river. I don't think we had one weekend without some type of storm all summer! My family did manage to make a few trips to the river this year. Our wonderful neighbors, Tom and Joy Garrison built a place in Pickstown and we get to invade it once in awhile. Both times we were there we watched storms roll in from Nebraska. The first time in June, I was absolutely amazed but the intensity of the storms that go through Wagner, Pickstown, Yankton. One minute I was sitting on the porch in my lawn chair gabbing it up and the next we were tossing the lawn furniture, grills, toys etc into the garage to keep them from blowing away. Paid a few awning replacement claims from that storm. The second time we were there, the entire campground was closed because it was under water!
I do want to thank all of my Full Timers who took the time to stop by my office while traveling through South Dakota this summer. It is always so nice to finally put a face with the name and voice that I do business with all the time. I promise that I will get back to work on the blog and try to get out more RV insurance information to you!
