Signs of the Times

Or

Let Them Eat Cake

Saw this sign a couple of weeks ago. 

Note the exclamation point.

I wasn't sure if this was meant to be an exclamation like

"WOW!!  $10?!? What a Bargain!!!!"

or if it was more like

"OMG!! $10?!?  We can't afford That!!!!"

 And when we got to the door...Sold Out.
(Can you see that?  It was written in thin marker, Jethro took the picture, and i am missing the photo editing program right now....trust me, the bottom of the sign says "Sold Out.")
Looks like at this point in this neck of the woods, we will pay any price for hay. 

Have seen a lot of this, lately, too. 

People are raking down to bear earth and rolling whatever they can. 

Not sure if it is to get any hay they can, or if it is to curb the fire issue.

At any rate, have seen a lot of dust devils the last couple of weeks.

Post Script:  Note the growth in front of the fence--this is goat weed.  See posting for Oct. 3rd, Ca-Rispy.
