I like that definition. My pond is fed by South Moco Creek. Ha, I have a Lake!!!![/quote]

Well Jeff, if it has a dam, then you have a resevoir. \:\)

Here is my understanding...

Lake - occur naturally
Resevoir - man-made lake
Pond - body of water less than five acres

I may be wrong, it happens from time to time. \:\)

Water dries, rocks crumble, and trees die. The only thing that is eternal is the reputation we leave behind.
