Hi, all participants discussed , very cool forum.

 

[digginponds]

Thank you all for stopping by.I don't have any new pictures.I do have new babies.I found or saw atleast 4 .I'm not too sure who the mom or dad was.So I just say [who's ya daddy] ,lol.
Well I'm not in the best of shape.I over did it this summer,and had to have a operation last week on my shoulder.Hard t type with one hand.
Now I got to find someone to get the leaves out of this pond,it is getting cold here fast.I'm feeling alittle depressed because I cannot do the cleaning up myself.The filters are full and need a cleaning.Anybody out there in the pond world wanna help?,lol
there is always darkness before the dawn................

Darn Diggin,..................

Wish I was closer I would come over and help you out.

Those shoulder surgeries can hurt big time! Speedy recovery to you.

I wish I could help but I got my hand full here, and I live way to far or I would come help. Hopefully you heal soon, can you get around with the other arm at all and do just a little bit at a time. Do you have any family or friends in the area? Seems like every where I turn somebodys got a heath crisis, I must be getting old, and all my friends seem to have something going on too, my sister, my husband, my friend, heck everybody I know these days has had surgery, or waiting for surgery, or has some type of therapy for something.... I moved lots of big rocks this year and sidewalk blocks till my back paid for it, now I got to remember I'm getting older and maybe I need to get smaller "rocks and blocks" to play with! Ha ha ha

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!!

diggin
A bit far for me to ride my bike over to help ya

 

[digginponds]

Oh this does hurt,and never thought this would happen to me.Sad thing is I need the left one worked on too.
ActuallyI do have freinds who have come over to help.But as a POND LOVER,I like it cleaned my way.but help is better than no help.
Also I think I might be moving ...........,so some if not all these fish will be for sale.Sad to say that ,but doubt they can handle a 2000 miles ride.
Thanks all,and if anyone is interested in my huge or small koi's and goldies,please send me a message.

 

[addy1]

Aww darn diggin! good luck with the second surgery and the possible move.

 

[j.w]

Hey diggin you coming to the West coast?

 

[digginponds]

I wish............^^^ But it will be back to the east coast with all my family.
Funny I have family in Washington as well.This world is small.
So I was able to do a alittle clean up with my left arm today,I couldn't stand the leaves in the water,and I know the fish didn't like it either.
Now my brother is thinking of creating a pond in his yard,and said maybe we can come up with a idea to move the fish.I need to investagate that,in how this could be done.I'm pretty sure a plastic baggy isn't gonna work,lol.
I think I will cruise the net for a few answer's.I mean people buy and ship koi every day.
I'm really attached to my babies,prolly a obsesession issue,haha.I felt funny doing a one armed bandit out there,but nothing really stops me,maybe slow me down,but I can't stop.I will spend another cooold winter here,that is for sure,and I will do everything I can to make sure the babies are snug as a bug in a rug,while the chicago breeze blows over my pond.
Being bored and frustrated is starting to set in.But as Collen said we all get older and we all will oneday have problem's with are health.I see this as a learning curve.........LOL
Thanks everyone.The bright sunlight of friends sure warms my heart.

Bet with some of those battery or even car run air pumps, a container with bags that are padded, so the fish don't smack around, darkness, slime coat, salt whatever helps koi, you could do it!

Where on the east coast? it goes from north to south!

 

[jhenkel]

Shalom - what about a dc/120 converter and use an aquarium air pump/stones - newer cars even have a 120 outlet as well as DC?

 

[digginponds]

well until I do move.The recoupe on this operation has been slow.
But today was a great day to get out and take some pics of the babies,well not so baby.
Check out my ghost koi,pic four .she is the one who had babies,but too small to see in the pics.
Enjoy I know I have today

 

[j.w]
