Hi Melly, so glad to hear you are safe and sound. Yes, it is so dry everything 
is dying around here. I've lost 6 big Oaks in my yard and though I cannot water 
my trees like you I spot water my herbs and potted plants. They say we are 
under a La Nina effect and the drought will last well into 2012. I'm not sure 
we can make it that long without water.

Best regards,
Sandy

Sandy,
 
Thanks for your concern.  Am glad we here in central Texas are all safe.  I am 
pretty far from all fires.  It is cloudy but the clouds are whitish/grayish.  
Sun is full blast.  Hot again.  Renee is right, God please send lots of rain 
here.  The grass in our area is like dried hay due to water restrictions in 
watering the lawn.  The heat is different, i water the plants soaking wet early 
morning and by noon time the plants are drooping and withered.
 
Take care.
 
Melly
