One yea...We had a drought here for about 15 years. One year it was so bad, even the weeds didn't grow! I decided I would be thankful for EVEN the weeds because it meant rain during summer and snow during winter. Since we had no water coming down, the sub water was also going down far below what our individual pumps could pick it up. We HAD water, it was just too far down to pull up with our pump. The Lord has brought His heavenly water again, the past couple years, along with a new water well with a big enough casing to put a pump in that reaches the water. This was installed last summer, July 17. I am STILL thankful for the running water from the well and the snow and rain we have begun receiving, and thankful for the weeds.<BR/>Pam WilliamsPamela Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17612286088140480748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2172707736566212799.post-57163371690502895282008-07-31T20:30:00.000-05:002008-07-31T20:30:00.000-05:00Ah yes!
