Our despair

Scenes from around the yard and one of the worst droughts in decades.

my pumpkin decided to uproot itself. I have no idea how this happened

The eggplant that never was

The peach tree that died, came back to life, and then died again. 

No, it's not fall. I took this picture in July.

...and yet people continue to water their lawns in the heat of the day.
