Today all eyes are on the sky. At least in my neck of the woods.
The Kentucky/Ohio/Indiana region is officially in extreme drought. Trees are dying, grass has been dead for a long time, creeks and ponds are dry, even foundations are being damaged by the dry, hardened clay soil. We haven’t cut our grass since the first week of July–there hasn’t been any grass to cut! We have 70 foot trees out our back door that dropped their dry, browned leaves weeks ago. We are already raking up fall’s leaves, an activity that usually doesn’t begin for another month.
But today, they’ve said it might rain. Only a 60% chance, but that’s the most hope we’ve had in a long time. So let it rain, let it rain, let it rain. And then let it rain some more.
