Rain is basically nature’s apology for traffic jams. So why not catch it? Put a rain barrel under your downspout. You can collect up to 1,000 gallons per year just from your roof. That’s enough water to wash your car, water your tomatoes, and maybe have a tiny dance party.
If you don’t have a barrel, use a big bucket. It’s not fancy—it’s resourceful. And resourceful people are basically real-life wizards.
