After the rain has fallen

While the arrival of rains is a great thing for some (i.e. the farmer man who just wants his crops to grow), it's not so fun for others....

This USE to be a nice river drift leading to a community that is usually isolated during the rainy season because no cars could get there. This drift, which was finished only a few months ago, is completely useless ONE heavy rain later. The community is right back in isolation!

The driver of this truck is also not so happy with the rains. The river, which are just miles and miles of sand when it isn't raining, floods at the first sign of rain. Many truck drivers think 'oh, this ain't so bad, I can make it'...only to end up like this guy! And if he doesn't get it out today, tomorrow, most of the essential parts of the vehicle as well as his contents will most likely be gone....
