We are about six inches behind on precipitation for the year. Our pond has pretty much dried up...

The top of the birdhouse to the left is six feet above the ground. The base is about a foot above what little water there currently is. There have been a few years where it was almost under water in the spring.

I found a graham cracker crust sitting around doing nothing, so I turned it into a apple/oatmeal pie...

We've been hiking a lot to see the fall colors. A couple weeks ago we went to see some waterfalls in the County. This is Wren Falls...

Even the waterfalls are suffering due to the drought. Foster Falls is usually a full sheet of water instead of a couple trickles...

This has been the longest summer I've seen here. We still have some flowers around...

Kelly has been taking pictures everywhere we go...

This is the Little Turtle Flowage...

I took a picture of the both of us...

Of course, we've been taking Finlay. Even she gets to wear orange...

She tears up-and-down the trails...
