  Water Harvesting 101 introduces you to: 
  Passive Water Harvesting: This is the act of sculpting your land with basins, berms, and drainage swales. The goal? To channel rainwater toward plants and away from structures – like your house. Passive water-harvesting earthworks eliminate the need for landscape irrigation connected to municipal water systems. In arid regions, that spells substantial cost savings. 
  Active Water Harvesting: Want fresh garden produce when it’s 105 degrees out? And it hasn’t rained in six weeks? At my place, the 1,500-gallon rainwater harvesting cistern makes year ‘round gardening possible. And, on wash day, I don’t let the wastewater go down the drain. Instead, I use a greywater harvesting system that effortlessly diverts that wastewater from the laundry to my four fruit trees.

  The Pharaoh's Cities - Urban...

  The emergence of ancient Egyptian cities was a direct result of environmental, political, and cultural forces that converged around the Nile River. The geography of Egypt—with its fertile riverbanks and harsh surrounding deserts—encouraged people to settle in concentrated areas where water and arable land were accessible. These early settlements began as small agricultural communities but gradually expanded into organized urban centers. 
  The Nile River played an essential role in this transformation. It provided not only irrigation for crops but also a natural transportation route that linked various parts of the country. The regular flooding of the Nile deposited nutrient-rich silt onto the land, ensuring a reliable agricultural cycle. This dependable environment allowed food surpluses to develop, leading to population growth and the specialization of labor—both critical components for urbanization. 
  As Egypt became unified under strong rulers, cities took on new roles beyond agriculture. Administrative centers emerged to coordinate the collection of taxes, the management of resources, and the oversight of large-scale projects like irrigation canals and temple construction. Memphis, established as the first capital of a unified Egypt, became a powerful political and religious hub. Likewise, Thebes rose in prominence as a center of worship and royal authority, especially during the Middle and New Kingdoms.

His stories are by turns funny, tragic, and uplifting, and are all told in his down‐to‐earth, friendly style.For J. R., it all began in 1966 when, as a young New Yorker, he impulsively drives his VW Beetle across the country to the very end of the northernmost road in Alaska, searching for an answer to a simple question: What is it like to be way out there? How this happened, whom he met, and what he encountered along the way became the foundation for a lifelong attraction to trekking and adventure travel. Subsequent chapters chronologically explore some of his many journeys, revealing an enduring wanderlust honed by his emerging maturity and outdoor skills. Stories of J.
