31% and falling

You know your country's in drought when the government starts handing out free egg-timers for everyone to use in the shower...

Well, that's exotic! At least when looking from the point of view of a person living in 'The Land of the Thousand Lakes'... :)

Yep. This is a land where we have former lakes that are now growing trees in the bottom of them.

(Mind you, we're not nearly as bad as up in the Northern Territory. They have a yearly boat race along the river where they cut the bottoms out of the boats, pick them up, and run along the river bed. And that's been happening since before the drought...)
