Was thinking about a hole in the "gutter" where the courtyard roof connects, with a pvc pipe going straight into a bucket, just in case.

But yes, if we had structural failure in rain, it would be all kinds of suck. ____________________ Personal Pontifications @ Alyssa Royse.com Tiny Tidbits on Twitter @alyssaroyse
