Default Verdant green...

Thanks. That was a nice relaxing retreat from what we're experiencing here
in central WI, which is... brown.... with only circles of green.

Our green is coming at a huge financial cost. We haven't had any rain
appreciable rain since May 28th. I just got an electric bill for irrigating
one 330 acre field, it was over $5200. For one month. But I'm just happy
that we could do it. I can't imagine having the kind of summer that they
are having out west.

Evenings here have been absolutely beautiful. Not a cloud in the sky, nary
a breeze... perfect for flying. In fact the only thing that could make
these evenings better would be more frequent sounds of pilots and their
craft out enjoying the sky.
