It's been very hot and dry in Punta Cana for the last month plus.  There are barely any clouds and the days that they all for some chance of rain, I can see the clouds east over the water but they seem to skirt south of the island. The yard and garden dry out so fast.  I get some water on the young fruit trees and vegetable plants daily because they're just shriveled up and scorched otherwise. Can't even do my weekly paddle in the ocean because the sargasso has been so thick.
