We in the western part of the States have been having a drought for the last three winters. Link to page showing how bad it is.
http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/Last week and this week we have finally had some rain. The forcast is for rain 7/10 days next week. Yay!
In other news the 2 cats I have been feeding have gone to homes. SUPER BIG YAY! Particularly as winter is coming in and they are out of the cold, wet nights.
