Summer before last, it looked like my back yard had been hit by a nuke. That was the year of the bad fires in Texas. We didn't have the fires here, but I didn't smoke outside, either.

The dry, hot summer last year just killed off everything that managed to survive.

It happens. Great grandmother talked about the winter of 1930 when they could drive across the lake.

Month and year my dad was born, so some good things come out of hard times. ;)

Wow. I know Texas was hard hit. My family there said it was really dry in their areas.

Was the lake bed driveable because it was frozen or dry??? I’m guessing since it’s Texas, it was dry? ;-D

LOL! yes indeed good things DO come out of hard times! In many ways!
