Dry Ground

I don't remember such dry ground this time of year.  Had 3 trees moved 2 weeks ago and it was dry 3 1/2 ft. down.  Buried the wife's favorite cat in the woods yesterday which is usually moist year round and the woods ground was like powder.  Is it like this all over?

It is extremely dry in southern Indiana! Less than 2 inches of rain since July.

I'm seeing quite a lot of "recreational " tillage going on around here.

Still dry.  Only an inch of rain since Sep. 1st.  The fields that have been tilled are awful cloddy.  It will take a lot of winter mellowing out on them.  The elevator manager said in his almost 40 years there this is the 1st time we've only lost 2 days of harvest to the weather.
