Every other day I wake up and wash my face with the last few gallons of h20 in the thirty-gallon tank, and then I use the same water to do the dishes. After that, I mop the floor and then with this water, I flush the toilet. What a journey the last few gallons had. After flushing the toilet, I take my three 5-gallon white buckets and go to the neighbor’s house where I alternately fill up the three buckets with his hose, carrying two and leaving one to fill. After three trips and a couple of hours, the thirty-gallon tank is full, and 15 other gallons are stored in the three white buckets. Next time you use the shower, flush the toilet and brush your teeth, think of us here in the DR…maybe your water could make a longer journey.
