Pond maintanance



This weekend was too beautiful to spend anytime indoors. While there are many areas to address, a chore I tackle every 2 years is a cleanout of our pond. A NASTY job and Michelle never seems to be able to help. It requires emptying the pond, scrubbing all surfaces, and making sure all the plumbing and electrial is working. An all day affair. My fish(and a bullfrog)did not appreciate the intrusion, but I am sure will be happier in their new environment. I am always amazed by the amount of pea gravel and toys thrown in by children! What is the obsession with this!?!?!?!? And where were their parents?!? I will start over with plants when it warms up a bit. That water was very cold!
