There is not a lot of business around, mucking up operations take all the time. Evacuation centres are starting to clear as people go home or what are left of it.
We have been slipping and sliding off our land for the past few weeks, waiting for the land to dry out...Mud is just about everywhere. The daily rainshowers have not helped to dry out the land and I have never before checked the meteo sites as often as I do now! Although we always need rain, we need dry periods more so that the fields and roads can dry out.
At our work premises in town, Lautoka, Claude has been keeping himself busy by working on the Landrover that he is busy restoring.
The schools have started again after the rains and most telephone lines and internet are functional - most of the time. Slowly life returns to normal.
Today it is 44 Coconut palms that will soon be planted , at least the wet and overcast weather is good for planting!
The field that we designated for pumpkins, has dried out and we prepared the field for planting.
Standing in front of bush and long grass, knowing that all of that have to be cleared, takes ones mind off mud and floods and rain....
and pretty soon the long grass and bush are just a memory...
Pumpkins and Beans are in
grow...
please grow....
