Yes, I was at your place during the Atlanta
Convention. I did have my shower plumbed outside to
water plants. Actually against code here so I had the
plumber run it into the back yard and told him I would
make the final connection which of course I never did.
What a shame how we waste grey water which with a
proper landscape would clean the water prior to
entering the water shed.
