Sizzle

With no rain for days and temperatures today reaching 99.7 degrees F farmers are starting to sweat. No rain can mean a bad yield and a bad yield is not good for their already stretched finances. Our own garden is feeling the heat but with a little watering and the straw mulch locking in moisture things aren't looking to bad.

Driving home from work today the corn all looked like an army holding sharp, green spears in my direction. Hopefully the weather rebounds and we start to get some of the wet stuff.
