Makes me miss the high desert. Or not. Rampant religion ... trapped by huge tumbleweeds ... I'm not certain it isn't the same issue, just different causes.
When I lived in Lakewood, California there were tumble weeds in the field. They would blow around and get stuck in fences. Have not seen them since. Perhaps this has something to do with Global Warming or Climate Change - Oh yea that is a hoax!
This hasn't happened before in Washington State as far as I know.
Wasn't there a Twilight Zone episode about this?
