Louisiana Drought


Seriously, its been the worst drought since 1895 and Monday, the weather expert on the radio said that Louisiana farmers need ten inches of rain to counteract these conditions, which he also said was not going to happen. And an hour later, it rained like this. And every day since then. I know that a slow steady rain would be more effective but my tomatoes are swimming. The ones at the garden have a little more room for run off and absorption. But while we were waiting for the rain to subside, Andy's mom said she wished she was a weather forecaster--she would like to be paid to be wrong all the time.
