This spring has been extremely dry. Every now and then our hopes would flare up, only to fizzle out within minutes:
A few times we had sweltering hot afternoons with very pregnant dark skies…
and rain that started promisingly, but soon stopped after a thunderclap. Every time before the pavements even got wet!
We heard about Johannesburg and Pretoria getting lovely rains, but here on the farm this was all we got!
On Sunday we had a special gathering to pray for rain and when we woke up in the middle of the last night, we could hear soft rain.
This morning the farm roads were wet! No really muddy wet, but 7.5 mm wet! Praise the Lord!

7.5mm!
I went to sleep to gentle thunder and soft rain, later I woke with the amazing 'fire and brimstone' thunder, then I knew the rain has come. Had to fist wake up to go look at the sheets coming down.
To me always wonderful to have rain -any rain.
Ons kan regtig doen met 'n rerige reen bui hier in die woestyn. Julle moet dit geniet en sommer namens my bietjie in die reen hardloop
Reën, reën, lieflike reën .....
Ai dit lyk darem maar mooi die blou lug so agter die groen bome. En ruik die veld nie lekker as alles so skoon gewas is nie!! Een van die dae is alles grasgroen!
Ai julle moet dit geniet... die Here se seen vir die aarde. As dit hier reen moet ons kanos uithaal, maar dit sal so baie lekker wees. Die weer word darem koeler. dis ook groot genade

Hi Thea

Hi Charmaine
Reen is 'n groot seen. Ek's bly dit word 'n bietjie koeler daar. Ons bure se dogter is verlede Donderdag Dubai toe (met drie kleingoed - alleen!) en sy skryf net hoe sy op die strand lê!
