The Diary Game|| October 2, 2025|| " Visiting My Garden Destroyed By Flood and River Exploration"
Every Wonderful and fruitful happenings, have some opposite that can make us shocked and surprised.
I felt very sad this morning as I visited my Garden near at the River. But before that, last day at exactly Seven in the evening we've been surprised and shocked about the heavy rain precipetate here and it took about five hours of raining. We could not see outside of the house because it was already evening so we cannot monitor the river and the only thing we used was chargable flashlights. It tooks few hours after when the river was started to create noisy of splashing of water. That is one of our predictions, if the river gets very noisy, it indicates that there is already a big flood. Cracking of those bamboo plants hit by strong water current and a smell of mud from the river. I started to worried about the situations that might be over flowed, and my Parents was started to prepared the things we will brought just like Documents and other important things in case if we evacuate. I'd losed hope when my Father told me that my Garden was already submerged by floody water and very felt sad.
Early In The Morning At The Garden:
Early in the morning, I hurriedly went at the Garden near at the river and I really seen how destructed by big floods happens last night. My Cassava plants and Lemon-Grass plants are leaning towards the ground and some of it are washed away and others are burried at the mud. The entire garden was covered with mud and wearing slippers is not good that is why I decided to walk bared foot. The strong water curents really indicates because of the leaning directions of some of my plants here at the Garden.
My Camote vines and Sweet potatoe vines are also affected of the big flood. Half part of my Vine plants was completely burried om mud and some of it are washed out. The garden plots are also vanished replacing fine sands and mud. This Garden of mine was already posted last day, the time when there is no flood happens. The bamboo frame I made just for my String beans are washed out. Tree guard structure also washed out by flash floods and some of it are hang at the big tree and bushes.
Our newly planted young coconuts was already washed out and only holes where it planted was only left. We planted almost 20 young coconuts here but only 7 Young coconuts left, some of it are washed away by big flood. Luckily my partner's banana plants was not washed away and it is still standing even if there was a strong water current and might lots of branches washed away passing by here. All of my Crops including my Cassava plants was also burried by mud and my newly planted cayene and bell pepper young plants also washed out.
The result of the big flood was already seen just like the cliffs at the river. The bodies of water keeps expanding and the once dry land and deposited with fine sands and rocks was already changed into a water channel. The wild grass swept away and some of it are hanged on the big stems of the trees and bushes. Lots of trash was also near at the garden and branches of the trees brought from mountainous places.
At The River:
It tooks lots of time visiting at my Garden and as I observed, those plants left can still grows and be stabled and my Confidence an hope was alive again. After visiting my Garden, I decided to visit some parts of the river near at our house. The cliffs was continuing to collapsed and falled down in the river. Our shortcut road trail was also destroyed by big flood leaving this big cracks of soil in the water.
Lots of big rocks came from mountainous place also at the place. This is very normal everytime when there is a big flood. I indicates of the great impact during washed out because of the line marks at the surface of the stones. I really amazed those things went here from far places and how it washed away by strong water current brought by big flood.
Some pieces of trash just like this metal was burried at the fine sand and muds. Sometimes I looked for any recyclable things and sell it at the junk shop. This big piece of thin can is perfect to sell at the junk shop and few plastics that can recycled also. I felt very sad about the problems I faced but I still have my confidence and full of hope that this simple problem will be over. Thank you for visiting my post, have a nice day to everyone.
Sorry to hear this. Sad to see the plants destroyed like this.
Its okay Dear friend, this is a part of life here in the Province. But I don't lose hope by planting it again here and always getting ready and face the problem when flood occurs.
