Volume 15 - Day 206/159, 2023 - Tuesday

This entry does not contain anything negative, it is jut an observation. I am not happy that this stuff we used to call grass is now simply referred to as 'dead.' I doubt that it is really dead, but it has been three weeks since it has been watered, and it will be (probably) another two weeks before it will get any more water. City water that is. Probably longer before it will get any rain. It's done for the good of the many. No real sacrifice. I have been in Texas for 38 years, and I have experienced both droughts and floods. One follows the other. The drought this year may seem worse that others I have experienced, caused somewhat by the population explosion. There are lots more people in Texas, central Texas specifically. Lots of people want to live here, and lots of people need water. I am pretty sure this will pass, and maybe we will learn something this time. Nothing breaks a drought like a flood, I have said it before and I will say it again. In other news, I made it back in to the office this morning, it did not take me long to get caught up, a testament to the folks that work with us. I have a couple new tenant orientations this week, and then it will be the weekend, and all will be good.
