Joy, I did my thing with grey water during the last horrendous drought (I think 1985). My entire family was coming for a garden party in celebration of my dad's 85th birthday -- and it had not rained even once since June, by August 25th, his day. So I had planted only a few flowers here and there in the yard, and I religiously carried buckets of veggie rinse water and whatever else seemed logical down the back steps and out to the back wall, for weeks. We set up the whole bar-b-que, the tables, the works -- and just as the folks arrived, down came the rain. The REAL rain, of course! What a scramble -- what chaos fitting them all inside -- but what pure joy to get the rain <g>.....
