Beautiful pond! Very nice set up you have there.
It's always a bit sad to me to take out all those luscious plants. But then, next spring I get to start all over again and it's always different somehow.
Enjoy your winter break.

Going to clean mine and get it ready for winter. Low wattage heaters going in and wiring for cameras and lights run thru heaters. Going to leave filters running until we get ice on the ponds.
Yeah I told Sarah..... it won’t be long before before Mulch Time.....Uggh Mulch..... I dislike that as much as cleaning everything up in the fall..... just joking... We enjoy our semi retired life.... she retired in October after 42 years at our local hospital..... I just can’t bring myself to quit working yet.... I am shooting for 70 then I will give it up... then again maybe not.... LoL
I love how your plants look @Jimmy Gibson ! It looks like a tropical paradise! I shut my pond down on Sunday and most of the flowers are cut back. I just have leaves to continue to rake. Funny how we are dreaming of spring already.....
