Howdy!!

I'm glad you asked that question. I've been playing with that idea as well.

I'm imagining the water I stored from roof runoff as beings stored in a cistern of some sort (maybe at or below ground level?) for the purpose of watering the garden rather that human consumption.

Though now that I think about it, if it goes into the garden it goes into me and my loved ones.

Rats!! And I just got a new roof too.

Either way, that project is waaaaay down the road. I've got to finish painting the house first and figure out how we're going to pay for college for the offspring.
