    We used to think there was, but once we got close to it we found out it was on fire.

    It shocked me to learn that because it never occurred to me that so many businesses depend in one way or another on access to water. If there is a solution other than rain I can't think of it can you Shuhak? Thank you for your reply and Happy Saturday to thee and thine! :) This post was edited by RosieG at July 17, 2021 1:57 PM MDT

    Sadly, for the farmers, there may well be, and it's called bankruptcy. I hope it never gets that far but also I hope the animals don't suffer too much.

    It never occurred to me how much so many businesses and jobs RELY on access to ample water. I don't keep up with the price of cattle but the ranchers are getting out at a loss. If there is any light to this tunnel we're in it is far off and will take a very long time to reach. It's nightmarish. Thank you for your reply Durdle! :) This post was edited by RosieG at July 17, 2021 4:58 PM MDT
