A great topic! I am very dependent on rain water. My well water is too
hard, the soft water still not good for vegi gardens (Ok for flowers)
and the R.O. drinking water is way to expensive for a my 70 x 100 ft
vegi garden plus the almost same size area flower garden around the
house. A 1000 gallon tank would work out great for the August dry
spells. Currently I use 5 - 80 gallon rain barrels, just not enough for
those temporary days in Michigan.

I'm late on this Dan, but I have had this idea in my head for several
years, after using this product for it's intended use for five years

Put yer thinking cap on here and do some calculations, etc. Cheap,
tough and holds lots and lots of water in the larger sizes. Comes
complete with low pressure, high volume pump and cover.

Spinoff of military waterbag technology.

Hmmm ... I ... I just do not know what to say Charley

My thinking cap is on ... I could for a month or two park my old pickup
truck back by the garden. Put a water proof liner in the bed.
How does the saying go a "Red Neck's Swimming Pool" or "Hot Tub". It
might work.

Enjoy Life ... Dan
