More Rain
In the last article, "The Rains Have Come", we had almost given up on more rain this year.then the unexpected happened and the rains began anew with several downpours which has saved Maio's subsistent farmers for this year. Corn and beans are plentiful.

The Rains Have Come and Gone
The rainy season which started out so brilliantly last month with two soaking rains came to an abrupt halt soon after. At first rain the local people here hurry to their small farm plots, plant their seed and pray for more rain. This is not an exact science sometime it works and sometimes it doesn't. If the rain does not come soon the one-meter-high corn and other vegetables will be used for food for the goats and cows. And the farmers will thank God for that and wait for next year.

Rain and Maio | Maio, Cape Verde
Usually not two words used together on Maio, but it happened yesterday. Only a shower, but some much needed rain for the farmers.
