Sunday started off on a busy note. As soon as everyone was awake, we decided to plant the saplings that Bhola had brought from Godda and Bhatonda. In fact, he was away all day yesterday trying to bring trees to plant this monsoon. He didn't manage to get all the trees we wanted. But the did bring a few with him and ordered more. In any case, there were over a donzen saplings to be planted -- flowering shurbs and trees, lemon, lime and a few decorative ones too.

Bhola left at about 10:00 a.m. and since then it's been very quiet here. I've been helping Suman in the kitchen since Khangen has been feeling unwell after the morning's toil. He's been feeling under the weather for the past few days anyway. So I suppose the digging and planting was too much for him. Richard helped too. Only Suman missed out on planting because he was busy in the kitchen making breakfast and tea for everyone.

It's been a realtively warm afternoon. The morning was nice and pleasant. But there's been some sunshine since 2 p.m which has made things rather humid. It drizzled a bit. Not enough rain though. Wonder if it will rain tonight. We definitely need more rain than what we are getting if the farmers need to grow a crop. When it started raining they looked happy, but now they all have a frown all over again!

The net is working again, as you can see.
