Nice!

Some people wouldn't believe this is February 1977 but indeed it is. 3rd year of drought conditions that would soon be so extreme the city of San Francisco told residents to take no more than a 4 minute shower.

Food was so scarce for deer that they were seen eating the bark off certain trees. I remember it well.

Fortunately all the rain during the winter of 1977-1978 ended that drought...
