I almost bought a place that had all the rain from the roof

The next door neighbor actually does collect rainwater off his roof and
feeds it to a 22,000 gallon underground tank for his irrigation needs but
mine is well water.

There are two wells on the property, one of which the well inspector said
was useless and is currently turned off at its breaker. The other well is
the one that supplies all the water needs.
