Red Sox – They keep finding ways to lose. They’ve dropped two in a row to the lowly Twins. Just bad.
Gas Prices – I can’t see any reason other than greed for a 70 cent per gallon spike in a week.
Drought – It’s already too late for the corn, but the soybeans are reaching the point of no return now. If we don’t get rain soon, they’ll be lost as well. The ditch in the second picture should be half full of water.
