My front lawn is dead. My garden is dead. My bush beds are dying. The earth has pulled back from my foundation.
After a summer of record breaking 100+ heat and NO RAIN, whole fields are going to waste. Roadside fires are common. Every city is on water restrictions.
After MONTHS of blistering hot stagnant air, the winds have rolled in and are fanning these things. I finally have my windows open for the first time ALL SUMMER.
I don't get it. When disasters happen in other parts of the country, Texans respond with concern and compassion.
But now it's okay to downplay a truly ugly and dangerous situation just so you can throw digs at Perry? I could call you an ugly name, but you just proved it to every Texan on this thread.
I've been feeding and watering the deer that wander all over the neighborhood just looking for a place to cool down.
I've lived in Texas for over 40 years and never seen anything like it. Unless you've been here you wouldn't even recognize the place.
