Ground Hard

I worry about little stuff.  If crops weren't being picked now, everybody would be talking about the drought.  The ground cannot be dug easily right now, and there are critters who will soon need to dig in and disappear for the winter.  Turtles are patient and persistent, but when you see them digging in dry soil to lay eggs or to overwinter, it pulls at your heart a bit.  We might get rain next week...
