Tired Been digging the pond. Have to do it one 16" backhoe bucket at a time at the moment. Spent time rescuing tadpoles. DW and DD1 did the same thing later.

Before I got the tractor. I had used the string trimmer to make a path. From the south and from the north. Turns out there is NO deep spot in the pond and we have had no rain for so long it is going dry. I have been digging out the cat tails for months as the water evaporated. They came all the way to the near rocks. You can see the normal water level as the light brown on the cattails turns to green.

Yesterday. That puddle on the right (which I dug with the backhoe in the muck) is all that was left of the water seen in the second picture above.

Today. New "low spot" in the first picture. 90% of that water came from the hose to save the tadpoles. I don't think any fish have lived.

LOL I am not so good with heights, BUT Cap is a building maniac maybe she could. Of course you 2 would have to swap places.

We had to change cell service when we moved here, the one we had just had no coverage .

Maybe that's what we need to do

So Misty how soon until you have/get animals ??

up here they were usually called children, heard that a lot "what do you think I have you boys for?"" Evidently 3 boys were cheaper then a snowblower until the neighbor sort of "guilted" dad into buying one. Best part was the neighbor never said a word BUt would see us out there shoveling away and when he was done with his drive would come over and finish ours off.

Unfortunately my daughter had children and is unable to watch my dogs. The GK are not old enough.
