We have struggled on with drought here in Australia for what seems like years. Five years of seriously below average rainfall here in Canberra. Who knows what the future has in store for us with climate change coming? More drought I suspect. I’m very excited about trying some of these rain ideas so that when it does rain at least we’ll use the water instead of sending it down the drain. Granted – someone down the drain needs it – like the Murrumbidgee River, which feeds into the Murray River, which waters our farms and orchards and eventually reaches the city of Adelaide. I’ll give it some thought but I do feel exited by the possibilities.

I adore those.
