Ok, so I live in the Southeast USA, and we are in a major drought. The lake that is our major source of water, is down by 19 feet. The government keeps letting out more water downstream to save the endangered mussels and sturgeon.
Well, when us humans die, at least they saved the fish right? stare The one year we needed a Hurricane, we get none at all.
We have about 80 days of water left, counting total outdoor watering bans, and water rationing. I told Ace that I want Bottled Water for Christmas. xp
So, are any of you people in a drought? Or would you like to brag about all the glorious, cool, refreshing water that you have?

somewhat ironically here we often have droughts and floods at the same time. So otago will be having a hugh drought while the north island is busy being flooded.
Sounds like a suckful situation to be in >.< at least u can eat the mussels right?

strawberryfizz This part of Ohio is rather wet. Yeah, I know. crying In fact, we had a softball game today. We were throwing the ball around, and it fell down the hill into the creek. I ran down trying to catch it before it was washed away, when I realize the creek is bone dry. I could kick up the dust as I jumped down into the creek bed to retrieve the ball. Sad huh?

Sturgeon are like salmon that live in the ocean. They spawn in fresh water, though, I think. And they're huge.
They're protected in this region, too. They're culturally important here, because the tribes hunt them as a rite of passage or something. Maybe it's the whales I'm thinking of...or maybe it's both whales and sturgeon, but probably different tribes for each...
Anyway, sucks that you're in a drought. It's weird to me to be in a drought at this time of year, though, because this is the start of our rainy season xD
I remember once the water main in our town froze and broke (or exploded from all the rain or something - in our area, it rains all day from October to June, but things usually freeze overnight in the winter, and I didn't live in town at the time, so I dunno what the cause of it was)...anyway, we had all the water in the world, between the busted pipe and the rain, but none to drink xD

wow that is a freaking awesome fish!
yeah droughts can be jinda ironic. When u live on an island in the pacific and have a drought, its pretty frustrating to be surrounded by water and not have anything to drink
