Dry, Dry, Dry

So this is a "dry year" in Rapid.  There is very little alfalfa to cut, and many of the fields will just just be used for grazing land. We have done one cutting that yielded far fewer bales than previous years - last year was very wet with three cuttings!  Below are some shots of a stock dam bed on the property:

As you can see, it is very dry.  

This morning we fed the cats with Grandpa Bob.  Every morning the barn cats (of which I would estimate there are around 30) circle the house in anticipation of Bob and his bucket.
