Not only is it illegal and unsanitary to run it out to the ground, I can't imagine standing in it after the second or third day of dishes and pasta water.

I dump its contents in the toilet each night, if there is anything in it. Sometimes, I put a little ammonia in it after I empty it. If an animal gets a whiff of that, they usually run, thinking it's some big animal's territory, which it is (mine). Plus, it keeps the insides cleaner when you start mixing the next set of grey water in. Some people just let theirs drain into a 5 gallon bucket and dump that each night. Either way works.
But how do those of you who have an outdoor shower collect and dispose of the water?
