Late Summer Drought and a Dead Oak.

This late summer has yielded zero rain.  We have maybe gotten half an inch in two months, and that's being generous.  Not enough water in the rivers or trout streams to fish so a friend and I tackled a dead oak that has been standing too close to the house for too long.  Glad it is down and I have lots of good wood to burn in the fire pit now.

Now I am preparing for a weekend fishing trip coming up this weekend.  It is currently raining as I type for the first time in a long while.  Rain baby rain.
