Me, too Lynn! Seems like everybody is getting weather unlike whatever 
they are used to. There's nothing quite like the viscosity of a smushed 
slug! Seems like that stuff could lubricate farm tools for years ;) Of 
course the summer two years ago when we had to reroute our septic system 
it wouldn't stop raining. And seeing the river 47 feet above our 
crossing during the two big floods, I'd never imagined there could be so 
much water. So I never dreamed we'd ever have a drought like this, one 
that could deplete so many wells and shrink a river to almost nothing.
