  I can't get the pictures off because I don't have the right cord. I usually just take out memory card and put it into a reader. The last time I downloaded some pictures I forgot to put the memory card back in the camera so it saved the pictures to the camera.

Put you things like your disk back where they belong and you will have them when you need them.

Castigated via an on-line forum!
Oh, how I miss the good old days when Fathers and Sons conversed with plain old simple text messaging.

We got a lot done this weekend. Our friend worked on the dozer and piled up the dirt while I added fill dirt to the back of the dam with the backhoe. I think we have about 20 yards of dirt left to move.
It will end up being between .4 and .45 acres and shaped like a kidney.

Not yet. We got some rain today so if the water comes up a few feet I may go get some.

Chris,
Don't succumb to Sunil's overbearing and aggressive fathead fixation. He and Burger pummelled me into a whimpering mass as soon as I had my first mud puddle. At first, I wanted to believe that this was Sunil and Burger's psychological method of promoting both character and forage base success for the budding pondmeister. I was wrong.

I would probably already have some in there if the water clarity was higher. Right now the secchi reading is probably less than 2 inches. It may not make a difference though.

The two pipes for this pond end in a ditch that drains about 60 acres+. I was worried that the 2" pipe would fill with mud so I added an elbow and another 2 feet of pipe to get it above the water level during a flood.
While I was installing the elbow I noticed that pipes were located in a big bend in the ditch. The ditch is shaped like a U with the pipes at the bottom. My plan is to dig a ditch to connect the top of the U and fill in the ditch just upstream of the pipes. This will stop the flow by the pipes and hopefully keep them from filling with mud.

Looking south towards the pond. I am standing out in front of the campers which are about 150 yards away from the pond.

It will be at least 11', more likely 12'.
I worked on the backhoe and you can move a lot of dirt with that thing. With a mounded bucketload you have about 2 yards worth of dirt.
