And they all danced…..

And they all danced….. 

As you see from yesterday’s post.. we are having fires all over our valley as well as neighboring states and Canada.

Every morning for the past week, we have woke to smoky skies.. barely seeing the sun until it is about noon and straight up.

We have all prayed for the firemen, for the people who have had to evacuate from their homes and also praying for RAIN…  

Our prayers were answered some, on Sunday night late.

It was about 10pm.. and it started and down it did come. It did come down for about an hour I think they said. Even puddles on the roads.. 

Our town over the weekend has had a music festival that is every year at this time…  I head a story which made us all understand.. and those of us who were awake at the time, surely understood..  and even those of us who heard it later. 

See there was a show going on at the field in town, where the festival is … don’t know who was performing… but when the rains started.. it was not the usual reaction… The people sit in their own chairs or sit on blankets…  but when the rain started? 

EVERYONE STOOD, AND STARTED TO DANCE, hooted…AND LAUGH… to the point it was hard to hear the band, but the band did play on… to add music to the dancing of joy.. the dancing with hands raised to the sky…and time and time again.. THANK YOU GOD.. THANK YOU GOD FOR YOUR RAIN..

 

While it isn’t enough to stop the fires… but it was enough to give the firefighters a breather…
