The rain this year has been a blessing and also hell. Some areas are still too dry and others are flooded.

Some areas of California have had record rain. The Central Valley farms with irrigation water from water storage. A new dam has not been built for more than 50 years. While the water runoff flows to the ocean or is diverted to a two inch fish, farmers on the west side are unable to farm. It is heartbreaking to see fruit trees and vineyards dying. There is no or very little work for the farmworkers and farmers are facing a year of no earnings.

Thanks for the ping, Gail. The people of Tennessee are in my prayers.

That is the libtards plan. Control the food supply and you control the people.
