For the last two years in Texas, including here in Central Texas Hill Country where I live, the state has suffered through a most horrific drought. It never reached the "worst" level in history, though, leaving the drought of the 1950's still unmatched.

| HOME SWEET HOME |
Acreage turned brown, ground cracked, lake levels lowered, and trees died, while the sun beat down daily for months, creating 100+ degree endless days. The prediction was more of the same through end of 2011and on through 2012.

But I guess God doesn't listen to weather forecasts, because the rains began toward the end of 2011, and have continued this year. Miraculously, the aquifer level rose, the lakes filled--not to capacity, but on their way--the fields and pastures burst into green grass and flowers, and the trees revived.
