Here is a cool flickr slideshow from the Texas Parks and Wildlife showing some of the extremes of this drought. It is pretty horrible all over. Still praying for rain! Did get a little over night.

Yeah a lot of this pics are from Lake Travis - but most of the rest are from west Texas. It is disastrous out that way.

Powerful images. That last image sums up the state's plight. Here's to rain coming soon and often.

Makes me thirsty just looking at them pictures. Horrible, horrible, horrible situation. I am curious what the contingency plan is.
