White Rain

Last night’s thunderstorms brought welcome rain showers. We were all set to irrigate, but lightning-enhanced rainwater has more nitrates, doesn’t wash away fertilizer like flood irrigation does, and, if there’s enough moisture, saves us a great deal of time and work.

Nighttime showers and drizzle turned to slushy snow this morning. The calves weren’t happy, but after a good supper and romp, they’re snuggled in thick, dry mattresses of straw this evening, apparently none the worse for wear—which is more than I can say for the pansies!




He it is who makes the clouds rise at the end of the earth, who makes lightnings for the rain and brings forth the wind from his storehouses. –PSALM 135:7 (ESV)
