Rain barrel

My wife and I have often talked about getting a rain barrel to collect water for our plants. They are just so expensive that it is hard to justify the cost. This Saturday the city of Urbana and the U of I Extension are having a truckload sale on rain barrels and composters. The 55 gallon rain barrels are $55 and the composters are $45. I will be going right when they open to get a rain barrel. Later.
