Default Verdant 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.


Ouch! Sorry to hear that.

Our drought is finally over, thankfully, and our farmers are
strangely...quiet. But I guess that's the best they ever get, isn't
it? :-)
