Thanks Carla B - I'll try the extension service - we city girls tend not to think of them as a source. I tried to search the Daily Sun archives for the rain barrel article, but didn't find it.

I looked at my last water bill - 5600 gallons - I have a courtyard villa, so once I figure out how to use the water I collect, I think it might make a difference, at least in the backyard. It's just like recycling - every small effort adds to the cause!
