Re: hot summer night
I could never farm. Last year it was too much water and they couldn't plant
or it rotted or something. Then it's drought. How can you base your
livelihood on that? I got my water bill today. $100.43 - a record for me.
And now it's too wet to do much out there til we get some more sun to dry it
out. Ma Nature - she's fickle.
