It's HOT out here (Paradise Valley, Montana).
It's been this way for weeks-- these are intermittent hot winds that are mostly from Nevada, etc.
Well, finally, it's just sucked most of the moisture right out of the ground. In forested regions, or in heavily grassed areas-- where we raise a lot of Cattle-- both kinds of areas had grown a lot of underbrush-- and grass-- just before the hot winds.
This is kinda wild on my place where I have lots of grass below heavily timbered areas with underbrush.
Today, for the first time this year, I should be able to install pick-ups for gravity-fed sprinklers. I set it up years ago to get about 85 PSI, and can run several 1" hoses. The idea is to keep everything wet around buildings, etc.
So far, I got lucky-- no lightning. I gotta get ahead of it-- and can now do it.
You too have a good 4th, TRE.
