It has been one really dry summer here in the Northeast.
In all the years I have lived in my home, I have never seen the backyard so brown.
Oh, there have been dry spells when the grass dries up but turns back to green once the rain comes.
Usually that’s during the hottest month of July.
But now, the grass is actually crunching under our feet as we walk on it - I don’t see how it will turn back to green before the fall weather starts moving in and turning everything brown too.
We have our own well for water, but watering the lawn to keep it green would only drain it.
And with no rain to fill it back up, that wouldn’t be a good thing.
They say we are supposed to get over 2 inches of rain over the next two days.
It was supposed to start last night.
So far, no rain.
My fingers are crossed that it arrives soon!
