We have lots of liquid for sure a nice choice between, tap water, bottled water, beer, Vodka, Rum, Champagne, enumerable bottles of varying types of single malt scotch, several kinds of liqueur. Not to forget wine we bottle ourselves! ;-) Soft drinks for a half dozen tastes! :-) These of course are merely on hand in the event members of the LUG should visit. ;-) So no shortage of survival liquids although the lawn would certainly go thirsty before it got any of the above. ;-) Besides the water out of the heavens this past couple of months has been absolutely record breaking. In one storm I drove through coming home the rain water coming down must have been like driving through Niagara Falls! Amazing level of water. I've been through some heavy duty monsoon rains in the past in Malaysia and they were dew drops compared to this particular water amount.:-( So the grass wont go dry for many moons yet. ted
