Bioswale

I have been sick with either a cold or flu, causing me to miss two days of work and forcing me into hours of lassitude. It would be agreeable except for the fever and mucus.

It has also been raining. So I have not left the house for days. But today, between rain fronts, I took a little walk. Bioswales are the latest solution to inches of rain falling on impermeable pavement. Dig some trenches, plant some rain loving plants and hope they catch the rain and allow it to soak into the soil.
