Frozen, dried-out crops and lawns
We've been cold and somewhat dry this winter in Santa Cruz County. The Santa Cruz Sentinel reported that we're probably going to have the driest January on record since 1893. Several of us had been tempted to water our lawns before we had this last set of showers over the weekend. I know that sounds a bit daft to those of you in other climates, but our winter lawns here, rather than being dormant, are often long and in need of extra trims during the winter, due to the lack of freezing temperatures and the usually abundant of rainfall. Not so this year.
