Oh wow Peggy!!! It's beautiful!!!!!! You are going to have so much fun!!! Be sure to post pics as you add rocks and plants. Have you put any fishys in yet? Are you going to? The scene behind it is breathtaking. Thanks for posting!
Very nice and I see that everything is getting really green there. You will have it full in short time.
Let the fun begin. Really impressive scenery for the pond.
Peggy, how about putting a bench beside it...so when I come to visit I can dangle my feet in it? OHHH Cool water! I want a POND too....:( Jo
WooHoo!! How many gallon is it? It looks similar to mine. "T" :)
OH MYSTIC YOU LUCKY DOG! ONE OF THESE DAYS I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A POND OF MY OWN. FOR NOW I AM ENJOYING MY S-I-L POND. I AM TRYING TO FIND WATER LILY SEED FOR HER. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO BUY THE PLANTS ,OR EVEN PAY POSTAGE NOW. ANY ONE SCAVAGING THE LAKES ,WILL YOU REMEMBER ME AND IF YOU SEE SEED LYING AT THE EDGE ....
Vic thanks yes I want some fish dd has to have some.Thanks Cala the back line sure looks allot different now then when you was here doesn't it? lol Jim thanks my yard just goes to the fence the field runs behind all the houses on this side of the street. That way nobody else will build behind us. You won't be able to see much of the fence later on It will be covered with gourds and vines. My way to hide it. Jo I was already thinking about moving my park bench out of the herb garden and putting it close to the pond figure we would enjoy it more there. Sledder it's 90 gals I figure that's enough for me to start out with.Is it the same size as yours? Tink you will have one sometime too. I have waited along time to get this one too. Thanks everybody for all the compliments and all the help and I want to thank Iris too she sure has helped me allot . I will post more pictures when I get it going.
It look bigger than that. Mine is 230-240 gal. But that's a perfect size to start with. Then you can add on. But don't tell you DH that. LOL "T" :)

It looks wonderful,can't wait to see it all planted.
oh wow! you must be so excited! I think I heard you squeel !!!!!! Best wishes!
Hey, I've just ventured into this forum after many, many moons away and look at what you've gone and done, Peggy! That is going to be so nice. How's it going? :)
CC thanks and mingsmimi you mean you could hear me squealing that far away. lol I was thrilled with it. Kimberly its not going along so good. If it would ever dry up enough so I can get a load of dirt to finish it up then I would be good to go. I have gathered several rocks and have them around it but will have to move them when I get the dirt but at least it looks like I have done something. lol Hopefully all the rain and storms will stop soon and I can get on with it.
Bumping this back up so you will remember what it did look like going to post a pic of what it looks like now.
