What you will do
A practical starting point
Watch one rainfall and sketch the paths, puddles, drains, and places where water could soak in.
Steps
Try it like this
- Observe from a safe place during or after rain.
- Mark compacted ground and areas that dry quickly or stay wet.
- Use the sketch to guide future mulch, planting, or professional drainage advice.
Why it matters
Keep the purpose in view
Seeing water as part of a place is a useful first step toward better planting, soil, and runoff decisions.
