The Future is Drying Up

EVOO, Jack Daniels, Pom Juice all really high comparitively for now anyway. This is the driest summer I've seen in a couple decades living in Tennessee. It's raining all week off and on. Thank you Jesus. It is also starting to cool down this week, first days with 60's for highs coming Wed. I think this good rain may be too late for a couple of my trees though. No one, except for those with sprinkler systems and some of them too because of restrictions, had any grass this summer, barely any flowers either. Farmers were having to find alternative water accesses to water their cattle. I hope next summer is a lot better, I mean wetter.

Wanting to address a problem and make folks stop wasting before it becomes an emergency isn't depressing...............dry areas where I used to have snowball fights in August and be walking on iced over lakes when I was younger is depressing!

If the weather does not relent, we will all be subjected to Sahara-like, dry, extremely cakey brownies.

Yes. The truth is very depressing. I don't dwell on it either, but unfortunately, the smaller the world gets, the quicker it is going to have its trickle down (no pun here) effect on all of us...

Perk up! Don't mind me. It's all good as long as you had some rain. You wouldn't really notice the drought unless you actually lived in it. I think Sumner county TN may have broke a lot of drought/ heat records nationally this year. The rain is actually so and wonderful right now. I hope it rains all week long. The drought was a weird kind of world too, especially durung the record 106 degree heat wave too. It was like Lizard World.

Don't make me have to...

That's pretty over there I've heard. Has the drought been as bad there I wonder?

I thought we were going to die from drowning due to sea level rise, and now I learn there's not going to be enough water

Anybody got money for a desalinization plant
