Oh yeah, last year was horrible. It was so stinking hot. The farmers around me were in a crisis since they could not water their cattle since the wells were drying up. Several were paying over 100,000 just to truck in water for their cattle just to keep them alive. The lake were so low there was nowhere to swim.
One guy on facebook was posting pictures at how high the lake was and I asked him if he remembered the year the parking lot was under water. He said yes and he would not be surprised if it happened again. After last years drought and 110 degree heat I say bring it on.
Sadly to add insult to injury the farmer they interviewed last summer was hit by cattle thieves who stole 70,000 dollars worth of cattle. He was saying after the losses of the drought and now the theft he was not sure he was going to make it. I am really hoping a good rain is making them a lot of hay to bail and recover some of their losses
