A Little Rain Goes a Long way

We have had about 61mm rain in the last 2 weeks, and the effect on the plants is amazing. Even a bush I tried to kill a few months ago is sprouting again....grrr. So will have to dig it out when the ground is a little softer. So the rose is drought proof, will grow on a "bitumen road", and is reasonably vermon proof. For those who are fence crazy a row of rose bushes are ideal to deter intruders both animal and human. So three cheers for the rose!!!

The drought is broken

Hallelujah the rains are here. We got 41mm in the last 2 or 3 days. The new shoots of grass are about 1.5inches high in the backyard, and the car got a legal wash. The ducks got a wash, as they are insistant on sleeping outdoors no matter what, even tho they have a house to go to in wet weather. The rain of course only comes from one source..God. Man cannot manipulate rainfall as we have currently been seeing. Man cannot create water from the sky and has only one choice and that is to acknowledge that there is only one provider of rain....God. So praise and thanks be to God , Jehovah Jireh....our provider.
