we're getting greener

on this earth day, as first home-owners, we installed a rain barrel; and collected almost 2 usable gallons of water (the spout sits 4" from the bottom). i also just ordered a scalewatcher from a company in california. it'll reduce scale in our water system, presumably without need of a water softener. i'll certainly be keeping track of that one.

i also just finished filling our garden with 21 cubic yards of compost that smelled like the south end of a northbound cow.

i, really, have been going non-stop since friday and will probably be happy to go back to work for relief.

Daaaaaaaaaayum. What, pray tell, does usable water mean? I'm assuming it's not DRINKABLE.

Is it?
