During every rainy season in Nicaragua (which is the summer in the States) comes a period of drought. For anywhere from two weeks to one month, what was once a steamy jungle shrivels into dusty shrubs. Doors close every afternoon to fend off the dust, despite the perpetual heat that funnels unchanging through the rotating fan. The earth begs for water, only to see it evaporate moments later. The sequía is here, and we must be careful with the plants.
