Yesterday I watched episode 1 of The Dust Bowl an amazing documentary mini series on PBS. I feel that in a previous post, I had no idea what I was talking about when I was complaining about the wind and that is what the Dust Bowl must have been like. Well so wrong- yes it’s windy here but nothing to complain about.
Tonight I’m watching the second episode and they talk about the drought and grasshoppers. It has been dry here, and every step in the garden flushed out hoppers. They haven’t destroyed my garden, but I can see how they could.
Yesterday I found this guy about an inch long- the biggest one so far.
Imagine them flying through the sky in swarms so large they blocked out the sun. I can’t.
If you can take a few hours to watch The Dustbowl. The kosmos and planet earth will show us the way..,
