A Picnic in the Rain

I'm so glad we found this little spot!
We wandered around trying to find it the second time,
and yesterday we tentatively found it for the third time.
Now we know where it is, 
I think we will pause and visit there quite often.

Because we often don't know yet where we will be at lunch time,
I pack a picnic lunch so that at least we will have good food to eat.
We ate there yesterday.
I took these pictures between wiper blades wiping the front window.
Absolutely beautiful and soul-stirring yet comforting to be there.

It was POURING with rain all day.
Flooding in many parts close to us.
We came home to no electricity.




We had supper and Home Evening last evening at the Mission Home
with some of the senior couple missionaries. 
We had a history of South Africa given by Andre Slabbert and family.
Most interesting to hear it in condensed form!

By the time we got home there was a respite in the downpour and we had electricity.

"God's in His heaven, all's right with the world!"
from "Pippa Passes"
a little book by Robert Browning.
