Here's some good sources for tips, tricks, ideas, and suggestions for conserving water.

Water, water, every where, 
Tampa, FL - Although I've lived in Tampa for approximately 20 years, until recently, I'd never been sailing in the Bay. I'd been on power boats - traveling around St. Pete, under the Sunshine Skyway, and over to a small island - but had never launched on a sailboat from Tampa. … (0 comments)

I just had an experience of observing our dried up plant that began to prosper. That poor living thing had not had any water for a couple of days before I noticed that it had withered. It was sagging with no life left in it. It was exhausted and struggling to … (36 comments)

Ok the sky is clouding up. I'm imploring God for some rain. As many of you know we've been under severe drought well back to last year. The lake properties look like mud front lots, the mosquitos are bad and the grass/fields look like late fall-completely yellowed and burnt.

Water Bottles for the Homeless

In the 1930s and 1940s water was delivered....DELIVERED.....in Alaska. I was watching the "Actuality Series, TOUGHER IN ALASKA, and found out that there are over 30,000 people living in and around Fairbanks, Alaska, who don't get water in Fairbanks. That means, nothing from the ground, nothing from the tap. Six feet … (4 comments)

I just read that people are suddenly showing a preference for living in cities due to the higher cost of travel to work. That made me think about water not gas.
Judi Morgan prompted this blog so here goes...I know I have posted similiar blogs but it's worth another try. Judi mentioned she had shown several houses, one with A/C and the others without. In this Texas heat A/C makes a difference.

Streets, highways, inter sections, roads, bridges; there are a lot of them under water this time in South Eastern Wisconsin. Every where you look there is water, and water where it never was before. 
That's what I said to myself after dropping my bluetooth in water. Yes, it was submerged.
