What's up with extra fish popping up in ponds, for some reason my fish are hiding and won't come out, I did see a tiny fish swim between a pot and a rock though, it's just not my fish, where did it come from I have no clue, and what is it, who knows. I finished painting one project, have another to start tomorrow. I do question the upkeep of old homes at times.

Tara reason I moved from NJ to VA to retire .Cheaper here and taxes cheaper and homes cheaper and so is land .The house I had built was 89 thousand for 2440 sq. ft on 3 acres .The other place near Bedford lake is almost 12 acres and was 27 thousand .I got my weeding done almost and started the work on the pond .One side is done now just have to do the other side but it looks like rain ,but it was nice and cool out .Need a coffee break BAD So fresh coffee almost ready
Wow that is cheap. I grew up country farm, and now I live in suburbia, the good part is, we have a house no one wanted, it sat empty for ten years, and for ten years before that an elderly gentleman lived in it before been taken into a nursing home. My neighbour tells me the garden ran wild for 30 years. It has a huge garden and that makes the whole house project worth while.

I went from being wet to being wetter, took off my shoes and climbed into the loop pond to reach all the rocks the deer knocked in. After I waded the bog and yanked a bunch of plants

You're a good sport for sharing @addy1 - and it looked like you were thinking "well as long as I'm already down here, I might as well take care of a few other things!"
