This pasture usually has fescue grass that's up to 10 inches high. But there have been just two inches of rain here in the past two months.
If you've been out of town for a little while, then you this might be news: this rain we've been getting is a rare, rare, thing. Yes, the drought has been on our minds--and the radio--all summer long and a little rain this week doesn't change the fact that it's been devastating to farmers and the economy
