Drought Buster ?
Thursday, September 24th, 2009The rains finally returned to the Texas Hill Country. On the heals of the strongest drought in history, we have received the rains that everyone was praying for. As much as 10 to 12 inches have fallen over the past three weeks and it looks like the drought is over. And it couldn’t have come at a better time. Getting rain in the late summer will keep these springs flowing all the way through the winter; it ought to be beautiful.
We still have a couple months of growing season, so browse and cover should be great for hunting season. The deer (especially the mature bucks) will not be as likely to frequent your feeders, but look for them to graze the pastures in the evening and early morning.
The Texas Hill Country really comes alive this time of year, and with these rains it is prettier than ever. I can’t wait to get out as the weather begins to change and the trees put on their fall colors. What a great time to be looking at property.
