Hi everyone,from new member in High Ridge,in Jefferson County Missouri.I found this site a few days ago doing a search on Bottom Withdrawal Spillways,and have been doing lots of reading every since,and knew I had to join.Last Spring my wife and I bought 23 acres just down the road from where we live now,to build on in the next year or two.The land is rough,mostly wooded and hilly,so our first step is to get some clearing done and I hope to get a 1/2+ acre pond done at the same time,if the budget allows.We are working on pricing now and hope to get started in the next few months.There is an old pond about a 1/8 acre (not where the new one will be),but it's in real bad shape.The Dam is over grown and it's filled in pretty bad and only has a few feet of water.I may try to save it later.I'm really glad I found this site,it looks like a great place to learn.
Bob
