It Was A Dark, Warm Night...

as I stalked the trespassers.  Dressed in my pjs and knee high rubber boots, I quietly crept to the pond.  My ancestors, in the form of floating orbs, were with me the whole time.
The dogs were sniffing for smells that did not belong.  I had a plan, I had a camera, I was gathering evidence.
The pond greeted me with silence.  I saw no one but I would not believe my eyes, I kept searching.  By golly, I was there to take names.
I found this.
Looks like a sneak in and fish gate to me!
I will endeavor to persevere.

I Am In Withdrawal!!!

I MUST POST!
This is the water garden I built for Dad about seven years ago. I used Dad's rock collection so he could enjoy them. He spent many hours watching the fish, bees, and butterflys. Through the years I have let it grow out of control.
SOOOO, I have trackled the project. Had to take it completely out and check for holes in the liner.

Reshaped the hole, relined, and refilled the pond.

Moved flowers and started replacing the rocks.
What I thought would be a two day job has stretched out to several since I work outside the home. I am still repotting water lillies and looking for more rocks. Will post pictures of progress.
During the organization, I have found old photos. Here I am in about '87 with crimped hair and a trophy.
