I have to keep my promise to myself when I got together with Cindi and Robin to return to Pbase....today I took only three photos on the Blanco River. The river is at its lowest flow since 1956 because of our drought and I got an email today about conserving water because Jacob's Well, the longest underwater cave in Texas has stopped flowing for only the second time on record. It is the source of water for Cypress Creek and the Blanco. It is bad here.
But hopefully the cypress trees will continue to turn and I'll be able to find some color soon.

The theme for my Oct hunt today is all about water too...for those not effected by drought, you will be eventually. Time governments started to heed the warning signs & just stop talking about it !! After all, their kids will die of thirst too !!!

You can sing to this tree "You light up my life......."
