It seems like we are in a feast or famine situation. The Gulf Coast and much of the Northeast are getting more rain than they need, while most of the Southwest and West Coast are dry as a bone. We have been without rain for most of July, August and half of September. The prospects for "Fall Colors" look pretty bleak and the rain we were supposed to have overnight failed to materialize. We did have some rain during one of our Labor Day performance days, but the Play went on as usual to a sea of blue ponchos in the audience and the cast enduring about 15 minutes of showers.
We are continuing to have high 80's and low 90's with humidity for the past two weeks, but the forecast is for another hard winter in the Ozarks. Not much we can do but stay the course finish our final 20 performance days and hunker down for what is ahead. It has been a different year, with more Covid in our area, more visitors than last year and more confusion and information to digest on how best to "weather the storm". For now, we hope for more rain to keep the leaves on the trees a little longer, nurture the grass, plants and trees, and trust God for His plan for the Passion Play, the country and His Creation. It's all in His hands. Thank You, Lord.
