Hey Knap, I'm  about 25 miles north of Talahatta Springs which is in the Talahatta Hills.  Both are in Clarke County by Thomasville.  I am going on a rock run over by Troy somewhere this Friday.  I want to get some of that coastal plains before it gets too hot.  Bill

Been sprinkling on and off since last Friday here. Hasn't stopped it from being 108* yesterday and 109* today. And I still wouldn't trade a whole summer of this for one week of that cold crap that Dana keeps talking about. Man I hate the cold. Justin

Well Justin you can have all of this You want....it is ridiculous here.....heat indexes in the Triple Digits every Day....and We haven't had but 5 inches of Rain to date....if it keeps up this way....in 10 years they will all be moving to the Coast....or maybe Florida to see Eddie....because We will be with out Drinking Water...and the Cattle and Agriculture will all die...and I don't think that Red Clay and Caliche are very edible........ :P I would gladly trade Dana for 3 months of Michigan's Wet and Cold Weather a Year...just to aid this Drought We have been in for 10 years now

I predict your drought will end in the next two years or so! Just be patient. Global warming trend is nearing an end!

Uh YUP! Time to get ready for the new Ice Age. Hmmm! let me put on my Swamie hat and predict the future.

Buy into Triticalie shares! Thats "Rye" for all ya normal folk. Great cold weather crop for short growing seasons makes some prety good liquer too! The Southwest like Arizona and that area will become prime farm land due to more precipitation. Happened for the Anisazi durring the Maunder Minimum! I would also put your money into stocks for home heating companies and such.

Just my two cents on the subject!

Hmmm! Can I know be considered a Radical since I'm no longer toting the line?  ;D

Spent the 4th digging and hauling.  Got about 300-400 pounds of rock.  The temperture only hit 96 degrees and the humidity was only in the mid 50's.  For some reason, I usually wait until mid August when it gets hot and nasty.  Then I go get rock.  Bill
