Ty's Take
The governor's drought declaration came down this week while we're heading into the season that usually means heat, dust, and the kind of fire conditions that don't care much about county lines. In a place like Luna County where water's always been the real currency, you don't need a state proclamation to know things are tight—you see it in the fields, you hear it in conversations at the feed store.

Summer's coming fast.
