I, too, have been thinking about 2011.--At the end of that summer, I read there was no detectable soil moisture in Travis county (where I used to live). I moved here for the deeper soil and more rain (45"/yr), but have learned rain is not dependable. We might get 4" in a day and then nothing for 3 months. I am watering certain plants, but leave plants like Turk's Cap and Inland Sea Oats to fend for themselves. Wish I had a crystal ball!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
