We are very dry, 21 straight days without rain! Than a small relief came when "Nate" through. We got 2.11" from him, but back to dry for the last 3 days. Some heavy dew has been a small help, but just not enough! The leaves are falling like rain, they are crunchy and dry. Our creek is dry! Even when we have been dry in the past, it will normally run when we get some rain, but nothing! The 2.11" from Nate did not even affect it. We have accumulated a large brush pile over the last few months, but sure can't burn it until the ground gets a lot more wet. may have to wait till it snows to burn.
