[RC] Serious drought/HOT in SE - Jody Rogers-Buttram

Ok everyone,
 
 We here in Alabama, don't know about the rest of the South, but we are in some serious heat and dry conditions.  Today, the weather service issued a heat advisory.  They also say that for the next 7 days, no end to this in sight.  We haven't ridden since the OD, and frankly, I don't want to right now in this heat.  Looks like we are not going to see a second cutting of hay.  Hubby farms, still needs another 300 roles for the cows this winter, (we only have 600 put up for them now).  People are coming out of the woodwork wanting hay.  I have NO square bales yet, and don't know where I will get them.  Angie has told me where I can get that "beautiful Alfalfa" she has.....and it is a 2 and half hour drive....but will be worth it.  Is anyone else out there having this problem?  I know out west it is dry/hot and on fire.  If we had one match dropped, we would have flames for a month !!!!
