The rain hit us really hard right at 10pm! Currently it's bright blue skies outside and cold. I was hoping the rain would continue into today, but it seems like all the fun rain comes at night when were asleep :(
The garden and the entire yard for that matter got a good soaking, which means I shouldn't have to run my drip irrigation for the next couple of weeks if we stay under the 80 degree mark.

Rain water harvesting in 5 gallon buckets
Here is some fun we had a few weeks back with some extra 5 gallon buckets we had in the garden. I stuck a 5 gallon bucket under the newly installed rain gutter in the front yard about every 10 minutes. I was able to quickly fill the six buckets with rain water. This was just for fun, although it does make me want more 55 gallon drums for real rain water harvesting!
