Timothy, I always love your humor, keep it up,and your woodworking skills are phenomenal! Gordo, is that a floating area full of annuals? What a neat idea! I might steal that for my ponds this year. T, your pond and yard are gorgeous! I don't remember seeing the "whole picture" before, although I'm sure I have ... and have just forgotten. Oh how I wish my mind was not so forgetful. Oh well, I still smile and don't worry much about it. Life is too short to worry about the little things. :)

T, I really like shady ponds except for the leaves in the fall. I have to "tent-net" our pond for a couple of weeks, how do you keep your fall leaves out of your pond?

Wow @tbendl . Your pictures make me thankful for just maple and oak leaves. I think for your rebuild you should consider a skimmer!

I think she needs more than a skimmer ,a net sure would help that or a strong wind to blow them some where else

You don't need a skimmer, you need a chainsaw!!:)
It's so pretty in the summer and even the fall since it is the only tree that changes color. I just need to net it next fall. Within about a week, all the leaves were down.

And Sissy, I have always said, trees are just weird people who poop all over my yard in the fall. :)
