When Lakes Dry

Summer of 2006 was hot! Our temperatures were almost always over 110. Sometimes weeks went by with no rain. In various ads, I found many people selling their boats that lived around Lake Lavon because the drought was drying it up. All 3 bridges crossed huge areas of the lake. Now, it's just land with a few small ponds or puddles.

Thanks! Sad, indeed.

You really have a lot of issues that I think you need to talk with someone about. Besides, most of the "native grasses" do not count as lawn grasses.

And tell me why you really need a nice manicured lawn of non-native grass? The most common grass in Dallas is originally from northern europe and grows best in the pacific northwest...Dallas is not northern europe or the pacific northwest. just let the native weeds/grasses adn clovers take over, they're green adn take little/no upkeep. Don't be a highland park sissy.

Lawn grass will not.

[dcsolorunner]

watering your lawn should be illegal in Dallas. Grass grows on it's own without us, let it happen naturally.

It is sad. all of the water wasting suburbswith their wonderful lanscaping. The folks around DFW waste more water than any municipality in the US. Global warming, give me a break. they've got another 72" line going in right now. Like junkies on crack, they just can't slow down!!

Cheers,

Have a nice day!
