Today's shots: hot, hot summer days

I wanted to remember how dry and dead the property gets after a hot couple of weeks.  It's the middle of August.  Tomorrow and the next day has a forcast of temperature over 100 deg F.  My soil still has almost no fungi and no protozoa nor nematodes.  It is still succesptible to drought.  Hopefully, next year we'll see a drastic change for the better at this time of year.
