The ponds and streams are all dried up around here so I bought a small plastic wading pool and placed it in the stream bed and kept it filled for the wild life along with some feed. From the look of the tracks around it it got a lot of traffic at night so I guess it did some good. | Geez! It was hotter here than in Tucson where the folks live. I was tempted to go down there to cool off! I stuck it out, even with all the heat and humidity. Planted a few flowers in the backyard and was watering every night. Didn't lose any but they didn't look very happy.
Glad you guys are still around. Was worried when I checked out NTF last night and it seemed dead. The new site looks great! |
