We just finished the driest July on record for Springfield. We also had our 16 day of 100+ degree day. The record for most ever is 22. With forcast near or over 100 for the next ten days I would say blowing that record out of the dust will be a safe bet. We have also had rain all around us for the past few days and have yet to get a drop here. It seems that the lower my pond gets the faster it is dropping. If we do not get rain in August I will be all dried up. Cant believe how low it is. Warning....Owning a pond during a drought will lead to severe depression, high level of anxiety and an irritable wife. The remedy...Forget what you cannot control and start preparing for hunting season. I leave in 25 days for Wyoming Mule Deer and Antelope hunt for two weeks. Anyone else have any plans. The silver lining for this drought...hunt by a water hole and you should be able to fill a tag.
