Doesn't it just?! I was quite inspired to plant trees. I'm just about ready to throw in the gardening towel. All this rain in our area is causing chaos. Disease. Stunted growth. Endless challenges. With plants and animals. It's heartbreaking.

But those recent floods aren't here. At least not this time around. The Landies were bogged earlier this year. Our valley has flooded no less than four times this year! The last time the river ran (before this year) was in 2014. So you can imagine the chaos. Still people don't learn. Few have put up water tanks and even a basic solar set up. But now there's someone new to light a fire....
