If we got rain that would be a help. Some years we get lots of rain and other years we don't.
You know you hear about the droughts that last for a few weeks in California.
Well Texas went 2 years without any moisture whatsoever and the National media never said a word.
We had millions of acres burn and lost several lakes.
Heck on that note, a deserted city was found under one lake. And another lake solved 8 missing person reports dating back to the 60's. The lakes starting drying up and things and people were found.
The 8 people were found still in their cars. They had missed a turn at night and driven into the lake.
We were on water rationing. The first year you had 2 hours twice a week that you could water. If you were caught watering any other time the fines started at $500. The second year, no watering.
Different cities had different rules.
