Yep, no scorpions here...but sally, you are sooo right about the black widows! They are as common here as crickets! I haven't seen any yet here at the new house, but then again I haven't exactly looked LOL!! But, at our old house, I could go outside and find at least ten around the front of the house under the landscaping rocks. I'd kill them. Go back out the next day and find 10 more!!

As for the power around the pond...my hubby is an HVAC technician, and works with electricity as well. He actually took one of his tools...some sort of voltage meter maybe...and checked the outlet boxes around the pond...and they were all dead. He said he will have to find the pump and trace the wires to find out what's going on with it, when he has time.

Weeneel...I don't plan on removing ANYTHING I can't get a positive ID on. I'm not going to prune anything, either. In fact, I'm almost afraid to till the veggie garden, cuz I am afraid I'll destroy something special hidden in there!

Moon...where? I don't see a pipe/hose in the picture? Unless you are talking about this picture?
