Cooling down with the pond's help

[DeepWater]

Yes, yes we did. What a great way to cool down!

Plus, a neighbor kid threw a little toy air boat in a month ago and the AAA battery popped out. I found it in between the big boulders on the back edge. Had to deconstruct and reconstruct to get it, but it's out. I wonder if it would have done any damage after eroding...

Looks like a lot of fun
Min is more like sitting in a hot tub next to your pond

Lol, that's no fun. I thought it would be warmer after a day in the mid 80s with pure sunshine, but it wasn't too warm, it was just right. Might be because the middle section is 5.5 feet deep and acts as a cold sink to counteract the hot rocks on top.

That looks like fun. I would do that in mine, but would need to remove a turtle first. He thinks I am food, when I get in the pond to do anything, he comes swimming over to nip at my legs and toes.

Do you have any pics of the build?

I do! I've made a giant word doc of the whole pond transformation, but still need to take the time to morph that into the showcase format here. One of these days...

That would be awesome to see!
