Rain Barrels

I really believe this is an awesome idea for reducing the amount of water we use.  It is simple but genius to collect rain water to use in a very efficient way.  An average barrel can hold up to 55 gallons of water.  This water can be used to water lawns in times of drought.  I was very happy to find out that Lee County provides classes on rain barrels and is encouraging our county to use new ways to conserve water.  This was a very informative topic and a great presentation.
