Owyhee Reservoir

Here is where most of us get our irrigation water. This is just a small area of the reservoir, it's headwaters are near Donner Pass in Nevada. I was speaking a bit about this in the comments a couple of posts down.
In the photo are my sons...left to right Justin, Kade and 'adopted' son Kyle. We took an early spring drive in the mountains on motorcycles and 4-wheelers. It was wonderful to be out in the fresh air.
now, we have to worry about it being so dry. See the grass in the photo? It had a bit of green to it then, now it is the color of straw and it would ignite with the heat of an exhaust pipe so we wait until it cools down again to go riding much.

Beautiful picture, you have a good looking family, a very special blessing. Hopefully your area will receive rain.

MM, YES..that is definitely Murphy's Law. I get that a lot too.
Marie, thank you and I will pray for you as well.
CCheryl, Being 'content' is the greatest attribute a Christian could have. It's one of the hardest things for me to do. Someday perhaps you could come out and see our area. I'd like that.
