My garden is surviving (barely) because I am still ‘fit’ enough to afford to water. Which I have spent an inordinate amount of time doing as I am smack dab in the middle of the ‘ring of fire’ over the vast fly over ‘midwest’. I have notice a clear vacancy of US in the flyover midwest whining and moaning about our drought!!!!!!
Added you back in, thank you!
That is true. That is also typical of mid-westerners. We don't complain much; we just do what has to be done. I was pointing that out a couple of days ago to the mid-atlantic folks who were tsk-tsking about their derechos with their uprooted and broken trees. I commented that we've had straight line winds for years in the mid-west and everyone just called them straight line winds, or straight line tornados. Nobody in the mid-west had to come up with a fancy name like derecho! LOL
