What's in the Box???
Hmm what is in the box??? I wonder...You will have to wait an see at the end.
Dan and I picked up the rain barrel. The guy's name was Edward who we got it from and he was full of useful information. He told us how to start a compost bin and gave us tons of hints...
Here is where the rain barrel is now...
See the bush, we are going to move it this weekend and push the barrel so it is right under he roof (see pic below) We don't have gutters and a lot of rain falls from here so we will use what we have.
Dan got very ingenious on my ass. In the pic below you can see the condensation line from the outside of our house..I had put a little plastic dish to water the lawn, I mean we pay for it and we are only allowed to water our lawn once a week. Dan took the 2.5 gallon container (out of our recycling container)cut the side and viola" instant collector. I swear it fills up like 3 or 4 times a day. I told Dan to start pouring the water in the rain barrel so we can use it whenever we want.
So I bet you are all dying to know what was in the box....
It's our new low flow smart shower head from www.evolveshowerheads.com. It has showerstart technology and as soon as the water heats up it goes to trickle mode until you turn it full blast. It is almost 1 gallon a minute less that the highest allowable showerhead allowed by law. We shall see how this baby works in the a.m.
