Let them drink sand

Come on!  We are 2.77 inches behind on rainfall for the month of June (so far), and 9.18 inches below normal for the year (so far).  This, on top of a record drought last year that continues on and on.  So now the ABH reports that restrictions have been loosened again!  I admit, I am no expert on water resource management, but this just doesn't feel like the time to allow more of it to be spilled on lawns!  


I have a lawn.  Its not looking very nice (again) this year.  But I like to have healthy drinking water.  I like to know there is water in the hydrants.  I like very much to preserve this very scarce resource, and this just seems irresponsible.
