Mike,

My house is small also and on about 3/4th acre, but I quit watering the lawns years ago as for some reason grass just won't grow here in the Summer. Many of my neighbors had gravel hauled in and covered their lawns with it. The grass will take off and look great and then just die. I even had a man for one of the nurseries come out and take soil samples and he said it varies so much form one yard to another that some will never grow well.

To answer your question, if I do several laundries and a bunch of other water using things, my bill runs from $11 to around $17 per month. Of course the rationing has really made me watch the meter too. Go over the limit and it will jump by $70 dollars for the first step alone.

Ron
