Drought

Last week I had a rare opportunity to spend some time alone with my camera. I went to a local park, and was awed by what is happening. We have had trace amounts of rain for the last two months. I don't even know how behind we are on rain, but last I heard it was 5 inches, and that was probably a month ago.

Look at those roots, reaching for the water:

The shore of this little pond has receded by several feet!

yucky!

at least I was able to find something growing!
