My Pond History



I Filled my pond for the first time on June 26, 2003.  The size is 15 x 30 and holds about 5,000 gal. It was all dug by hand.  I did about a third of the digging and my step son did the rest.  I was going to do it all, but my husband Jim paid his son to finish it for me one day when I was at work. What a wonderful surprize.  The main pond then is 5 years old this year.  I will add pictures to show the progress.  After several different attempts at a waterfall that just didn't work, I ordered a liner reminent from Stoney Creek Pond Supply Catalog, in 2006.  The upper pond and bog garden seemed to work well.  I know the date showing on my pond photo says that it is 2002, but in reality it is from 2006.  The date wasn't correct in the camera.
