Getting Harder and Harder
to remember what day it is.
We were anchored down in Marsh Harbour, when the rain started about 9 in the morning. It just keep raining all day. All Day it rained, get the idea
Around 2pm I decided to try setting up our rain water collection tarp that I had. When we move further south water starts becoming a problem. You just can't pull in somewhere and say fill me up. In some places water cost $.20 to $.50 a gallon. So you better be prepared to capture any rain water that comes your way. Well I spent about an hour out in the rain trying to figure out the best way to do this and getting a bath at the same time. This tarp has a hose connection in the middle and is made for ceiling leaks in an office. You've seen them. As long as there is not a lot of wind it works great. In the 2-3 hrs I had it up we captured about 25 gallons of water. Our water tank wholes 75 gal. So this is a plus.
Btw, the rain finally stopped around 7pm.
Soon after Joan organized a pot luck dinner on shore at Mangoes Marina, who let us use their gazebo to have fun in.
