When I was young, my mother considered using a replaced toilet as a planter in the front yard. She thought it would be funny. Then again, we both thought it was funny when she’d have a little too much to drink and “trim” the gardenia bush to a nub. Is humor inherited or acquired? Maybe both. Anyway, when I saw this article about turning old toilets into reef balls, I flashed back to our Sarasota house, the one I grew up in.
A new pilot program through Tampa Bay Water and Tampa Bay Watch aims to turn old toilets into oyster reef balls.
Putting an old toilet to good use is smart, but it doesn’t have the curb appeal of one in the front yard.
