And the rains came

Yesterday the skies opened and rain fell all over the land triggering rejoicing akin to win West Indies won something really big. Like most Vincentians the sound of rain on the roof had me in a daze until it registered that rain was really here. I ran outisde looked up to the heavens and let out my version of the war cry. Okay, I jumped up and down like a little kid getting her favourite toy. I wanted to run into the rain the way I did when I was a child and feel the drops in my face and all over my body. However, reason set in since I didn't relish dealing with my hair after the rain escapade. Somethings never change.

Everybody seems a little bit happier as our water woes have been temporarily assuaged. Even the parched earth seems relieved and my plants have perked up a teeny bit. Here's to the rain and may you continue to grace us with your presence.

i almost couldn't believe it!

I guess everyone was getting rain.
Here in NY the rain and the wind was so much that the ground became soft and trees come tumbling down taking with it power lines all over the place leaving lots of people in the dark.

Enjoy your rain Abeni, while we pray for the sun to shine..
 
And more rain still.We may need an ark soon:)
