Last year's allotment was cut from several acre feet (the amount of water it takes to cover an acre with a foot of water) to a few acre <i>inches</i>, and this year looks to be even less. I can't imagine how hard it must be to be a farmer, and of course the drought affects us all.<br /><br />Lovely photos, Martha. You are so lucky that at least some rain has fallen there.clairzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076402619649343527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012697417276288973.post-31042830485071987042012-03-24T11:11:28.856-07:002012-03-24T11:11:28.856-07:00By the looks of the graphs, California is still wa...By the looks of the graphs, California is still way under average for rainfall, hopefully more rain is coming.Diane AZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02304549124035767882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012697417276288973.post-16514581825318020282012-03-24T06:05:11.106-07:002012-03-24T06:05:11.106-07:00Hi
