Steve - At least you don't have any laws against collecting rainwater! Was illegal here for the LONGEST time.. was overturned.. 4? years ago that people could now harvest rainwater. Needless to say, I'd been doing it all along.. oops. :D I have a 32gal red "recycle" garbage can from Ace hardware (
http://www.uline.com/Product/D...) that I place in a strategic place under my eves and, whenever it rains, it drips right down into the bucket. If I put it against where the downspot is, that would have been illegal. So I "neglected" to clean my gutters and just let it pour out there in the middle then. Oops.
But now I don't have to be so sneaky.
