Lack of rain

This is the salt pond behind our house. It has not rained much in the past few months so the pond has pretty much dried up. The rock that you can see in the picture was covered with water when we moved in in February. The locals who live in the area of the pond say that it is rare for the whole pond to be dried up. It ususally dries up a bit in the spring/summer but never this bad. We could use a rainy day here.
