A Kansas rancher continues to pick up the pieces following the recent wildfires that swept through the state.  Ethan Dickerson ranches with his family near Paradise, Kansas.  “We lost almost 200 head of cows over 4,000 bales of hay and 95% of our grass,” he says. 

And, Dickerson says while they aren’t in good shape, they’re grateful it isn’t worse.  “There’s a lot of guys around here that lost 80 to 90% of their cows,” he says.
