I know how you feel, we have gotten more rain in the last two months than the last two years just about. But my lower pond at the farm is still less than half full. Many a farm in the area has had their drinking water well stop flowing for the first time in memory. It has been powerful dry. All of our nut trees and blue berry bushes did not produce this past year, it was thin pickings for the critters. Even the squirrels disappeared from our pecan trees, the nuts came but were all empty. The almanac says another dry summer coming for us, sure hope they are wrong.
