Captured shower water as the water heated up!
Then emptied the bucket into our yard onto the lavender trumpet vine that needs some love.

Collected water from poo-less showers in my 3 gallon bucket and watered my pee spot with it.

Our family caught water from when the shower was warming up for a while. It was enough to water a newly planted shrub and an 8' raised bed.
