WarrenB - My current version of Google earth allows me to measure distance at a location - map. My G-map had a tool bar at the top with a list of icons. One of them right of center had a ruler. Click on it and choose options in the window. Measurements were pretty accurate in my distance tests. If I knew the address or location of your pond I could make the length, width, & area measurements.
