It has been so dry, so hot, and so windy for so long, I forgot it is JANUARY, for pete’s sake. Don’t get me wrong, I like this weather – well, except for its fire potential. But we need rain. We’ve only had 11 3/4 inches up here so far this season, and that’s not a helluva lot. I need to get out my 15 years of calendars and compare it to other years.

Next week, in the middle of the week, it looks like that MIGHT change. Good. My garden and I have just about dried up.
