TOO Darn Hot (and dry)

I’ve never seen anything like it. That’s what people say. Well, it’s true. This has been the hottest driest spring since 1895. Unless there are a few 110 year old folks hanging around in our area this is as hot and dry as it has ever been. The cracks in the ground remind me of the area we used to live north of Fargo. When late July set in the cracks in the ground were so wide that you could fall into them and twist your ankle. It was terrible.

We are nearly there now. Our lawn is golden brown. Weeds are not a problem. They all died. It’s among the driest times I’ve seen since we lived here.

Is there reprieve? Nope. No rain no where. And when it gets this dry for this long it’s hard for a rain shower to make the trip across the arid prairie.

So, pray for rain. If you are too wet don’t. We need rain desperately. Send it on down, send it on down, Lord let your mighty rain come on down.
