Speaking of,

it's ben horribly driy around my area for the last couple weeks or so,
and the corn is starting to suffer. But there is a chance of some rain
tomorrow. The good news is that Lake Carlyles level hasn't dropped
much more than a couple inch's (that is,from what I hear). Thats one
of the glories of a dammed up river, they can control the level,
unless it gets drastic.

Tomorrow afternoon? sun 'n fun!

We're way down on the annual rainfall also. Many of the cornfields in the
area are looking pretty bad.

Last night the fuze blew on the electric pole outside the house. Sounded
just like a pound of C-4. This morning the street was full of electricity
repair trucks, and a Bobcat. The Bobcat was in the middle of my front yard,
filling a hole it had dug to get to a transformer that had shorted.

According to the foreman of the crew, the dry weather is causing all kinds
of problems with the underground lines and transformers. Had something to
do with the settling of the earth. At 4:30 this morning, I wasn't too
alert!

The explosion scared the **** out of the dog too. I *really* enjoyed
cleaning that up. Don't ever let anyone, even a dying mother, give you a
Bearded Collie.
