This week, the digging of the pond has begun. Here is the rough layout


Here are the guys laying out the liner to check for size


Fast forward to today and this is where she sits

Ah ScubaSteve, my tank looks like junk right about now. Everything is red. Cyano cyano cyano. Frustrates me to no end.

About the yard, if we were to design it, then it would look nothing like any of these pictures. That's why we decided to get a professional to design it and that's probably the best decision we've made so far. Never in a million years would we have even thought of making our entire yard a pond. I can't wait until it's done, it's nothing but work work work all summer.

Thanks for the compliments.

Awesome Dez! Thanks for sharing! I can't wait to see it next summer when everything is green and blooming!

That's pretty impressive Dez, you've done a ton of work there.

Looks awsome Dez. Always wanted a backyard to build a pond in. Can't wait to see it finished.

Ha ha, they shot it at 30" but I'll be able to adjust it to 24" if I ever get inspected . Aren't they great people those pond guys?
