Did I mention how dry it is
here?
============================
We're in a severe drought here. The farm ponds have about dried up and the
trees and brush are turning brown. New landscape plants around all the new
construction in town are dying. It looks like fall here, not mid-summer.
The last decent rain was back in March. Lawns and pastures are brown and
crops are failing. And the heat and drought keeps on........ :-(

Our garden, watered as much as possible, isn't doing well at all. The earth
is so dry it repels the water.
