Putik.


We drove to Nueva Ecija yesterday, a rainy, soaking-wet day, to visit our Aunt and Uncle. Then we proceeded to our farm. 

The approach to our property had been rendered impassable by rain water which turned the soil into mud. So, we drove around to my Uncle's farm from whence we walked through soft soil into our place. We had to criss- cross several times, from soil to grass, to avoid getting stuck into the earth.

But it was futile.  My sneakers plowed in a ton of mud. 

The area, alleluia, will get its irrigation.  The local government is building an irrigation system.  

It was exhilarating to see green and vast open space all around.  It was harvest time.
