My Pond

I think my pond might be ready for the season.  I had to buy a new pump, bust some algae and clean up a bit.  It still has some filtering to do, but at least we are getting there.  I am considering expanding the area to have more plants and a bench. For some reason, I am feeling the need for an outdoor project!

I love this pond, although it does stress me out at times.  I am thankful for a friend of mine who loves her pond and everything to do with pondkeeping.  She has helped me and has given me some water hyacinth, fish and algaecide. Thanks, Amber!

My boys love the pond, especially all the life in it.  We have fish, snails and tadpoles in there now.

It's also a great place to relax.

Very pretty. I enjoy working outdoors also.
We planted that container that Chad made a light green. It is filled with flowers and looks real nice.
