Well…dry

Saturday, October 1st, 2011

Welcome back!

Well, we did have a little rain.

The surface is dry now, I don’t know when we will have more rain, but we need it in a really intense way. The farmers and ranchers here are having a lot of worry right now concerning their crops, and animals.

I would hate to be someone who uses trees for log furniture since the fires here in texas have burned so much since the drought began. On the news the scientists seem to be trying to get folks worried about long lasting drought. It is not as if they know exactly when it will or will not rain. They are guessing.

I wonder what ever happened to people wanting to wish for good news instead of bad news?

I have nuts

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

No, I did not say that I am nuts. Although, there are some of my friends that might think otherwise.

What I am referring to is that I have some nuts that I am going to plant. I want a tree outside of the front of our apartment. The landlord let me plant a small red bud tree there previously, but the drought killed it. It is not like I am wanting some preschool furniture from the lumber that will result, I just want shade in the mornings.

A tree would be wonderful. I was sad when the red bud died. I had been looking forward to having it bloom and be beautiful, oh well. I am going to try again. A friend gave me some nuts (acorns) from a tree where he lives. The tree itself is a live oak and it is shedding its nuts all over the place. I hope that at least one will grow and make a tree that will last for a long time. :)
