Out driving around in the wildlife refuge that is just a short distance from my home. This is the drive to Shock Lake, and there is usually water here but it has all but dried up leaving the duck weed behind.

Our lawns are all dried up, and you would not want to walk barefoot on them. Even watering my plants, and the garden, this drought is taking a toll of them too. It is nice to drive through this area, and still be able to see green, but for long?

Just an hour north of us the other day they got a good rainfall, we had about 5 minutes of sprinkles. :( It is supposed to be in the 90's and up to 100 degrees this week. The last drought that came close to this was in 1988.

I feel for the farmers, and the animals out there trying to survive. Usually I don't get that many birds at the feeder in the summertime, heck I fill them once a day, and keep the bird bath filled. I can see up to 5 at a time getting drinks from it. If your in this drought try to remember the helpless animals out there, they can use our help.

Thank you for viewing, and commenting, try to stay cool.
