So this morning I looked out my window and found that both the empty large planters were full of water. Just as I was leaving the garage I saw a steady stream of water coming off the porch. I quickly stuck an extra empty and clean kitchen plastic garbage can under the stream and it was filled up by the time I got home. It was filled a quarter of the way before I got out of the driveway.
Oh, how I wish I'd gotten the rain barrels in. They would be mostly if not fully filled today alone!
This water should last me a couple weeks of watering the veggies and plants in the planters. Everything here got soaked which means no worry about watering while the weather stays cool. And they are saying another storm may come through Saturday.
