And to think we usually have quite a bit of rain in the Netherlands, and now have as much as 5% of what's usual in this time of year with plants and animals suffering from the drought. Maybe we could make a deal if we send these fellers over; donate us a bucket or two?

We here in Acadiana are also way below normal in rain fall. All this flooding is not water from here but from rain up North. We are just catching the snow melt and water from other states. Seems like a no win situation.
