August in South Texas...it's just lovely (and I'm being sarcastic :o) cause it started a lot earlier than August...We started getting 90 degree weather in April and it's steadily gotten worse. I was shocked when driving to and from Dallas, near Waco and Cameron Texas the trees were actually dying. I know it's bad here but the trees aren't dying so it could be a lot worse. A friend in El Dorado said they hadn't had any measurable amount of rain for over a year and she said the mesquite and cacti were dying there, ugh! We did have over 2 inches of rain over a month ago and I'm thankful for that. The grass is just starting to get brown and crispy again, what grass there is, most of it is weeds. I've noticed the deer have been browsing on the mesquite leaves, hopefully we'll get a good rain soon. Saturday, July 30, 2011
Oh how I love...

Our cows eat the mesquite beans and now they are eating the pear apples. It is bad!
Never repeat this, because I will deny it, but I am ready for some Finland winter ;)
Paula I am sorry for y'all and hope you get some rain soon.
TexasGer...I'm laughing at your comment. I can't wait for winter in Finland so I can tease you!!
