Okay, here is the part where you all yell, 'it will be cool!' or 'your idea sucks!'. LOL There was a swimming pool here and now it is elsewhere. That lumber is being recycled and I thought it might be and interesting shape for a water garden/small pond. I decided to dig out the deep part first then go back and shave down the plant ledge (which is the flat spot right inside the wood). Right now it is approx. 12x6, but always subject to change! LOL I figure I will do one end three feet deep and the other end two feet deep with some sort of water feature. For now the plant ledge is 12 inches wide and I am going to drop it down 8-12 inches to accomodate pots. There is an electric outlet and spigot right on the other side of the deck. Have I thought of everthing?? So far, how does it sound??

Ps. NO, I am NOT using the plastic shovel to dig. lol I have 'help'.
