We also picked up our two rain barrels from the town of Danvers this week and I found a third on craigslist which we installed on our three downspouts yesterday. It rained last night and I've never been so excited about the rain! We collected quite a bit although I can't tell how much since the lids are sealed on with screws. It would be so helpful to have a clear strip along the side of the barrel so you can see where the water level is at.
Lastly, I've taken photos of most of the other varieties of plants around the house and written down the names (which I hope I got right) mainly so I could learn them a little better. There are a few that I didn't know and have labeled them below. If any of you know their names, or see that I have gotten a name wrong, please leave a comment and let me know!
