I want to build a very small pond in our front yard. My problem (with this and with gardening in general) is that I'm not good at visualizing what something will look like, or what I want it to look like in the end.... I'm not a whole-picture person, I just see little details, so my garden beds don't have a cohesive theme. That is ok (barely) with my garden, because I can always move things or change them. The pond is going to be a lot harder to change/move later, so I want to get it right the first time! I've been reading in here and taking LOTS of notes, and I have checked out some books from the library, which have all helped. I would like to hear from you all, too, if you don't mind.

This is the area...
