Drought and A Slight Relief

Whoops, the problem with running several blogs.  I usually post this over at www.ruminationofthunder.com but sometimes other personalities break through.

Last month we received 0.22" of rain.  Cracks are staring to form in the soil where the grass has given up the ghost.  July tied for the 4th hottest in our history.  2011 was the 2nd hottest.  So as we are waiting for dustbowls and locusts a small cold front fired through last night.
Corn or what's left of it
At least something is growing

I thought I heard something and went outside to look, a bolt of lightning hit less than a mile from the house.  I miss lightning but in conditions like this, CG (cloud to ground) strikes can cause bad fires.


Starlight, moonlight, city lights

Moon breaking through
