How dry I am...

It's been so dry here - no rain for a month. Every time rain is predicted, it goes over or around us. It's really hard on the farmers around here.
Our troubles are nothing compared to the farmers, but it's pretty hard on our flowers too. Bob is having a hard time keeping them all watered.


The Oak leaf hydrangea is already changing to pink and is looking wilted.

Excuse the blurry picture. We had a sprinkler going and this hummingbird was flying into the water every time the water came back over.

These garden phlox are doing ok in the shade.

The purple coneflowers are looking a bit bedraggled too.

We just got the birdbath and the birds have really been enjoying a place to splash around and drink.

You can really see that the flowers are the only part that gets watered. The grass is pretty dry and brown.
Praying that some rain falls this week!
