Anna: Don't burn down the "shack" quite yet, I may want to rent it.

Anna: I had a nightmare last night! In this dream GF and I had someone out here measuring the lake with a tape measure cause our Boys of Summer couldn't do our lake anymore - In this dream I got my T-Shirt with their name on it in the mail, and when I tried it on it was like a dress, black and gold, how weird. I woke up in a cold sweat! This is a good omen! The T-Shirt turned into a swim suit coverup and is a sure sign that your lakes will be happy and healthy soon. I took some pictures of the "Shack" and some new ones of the pond. I'll try to get them uploaded in a bit. The Volunteer Fire Department came by yesterday. OH MY. They were a mismatched bunch. The group included one very nice simple older couple, a 20ish gargantuan corn fed hillbilly looking kid who kept snorting snot, burping and spitting and a younger skinny kid who looked, talked and acted like he needs ADD meds. The burping and spitting got so bad I was sure that neanderthal was going to rip off a fart at any minute. All in all, they actually talked like they had good training and used lots of technical terms which put me more at ease. They are also going to burn the understory of 3 acres of pines as well as a large break of vines that we can't get through with the Bobcat. They are going to burn what remains of the grass in the pond basin too so that we can get a better idea of the terrain and what we are up against. New pics coming in the next post. Thanks everyone for the extremely warm welcome! I've stopped drinking heavily and have put away the guns and dynamite for now. Can't wait to see what Bob comes up with. WOW. No need for such drastic action. Who recommend THAT??? If us forum members can't drink, bear arms and have dynamite then I'm telling you right now I quit! And I'm quite sure TomG and Sunil will be right behind me. What's next, ban Diet Mountain Dew? I just put them away for now although the wine in the cabinet keeps calling to me. I may have to break down and drink it to get it to be quiet.

Nice pics. Actually post all you want. Anything but the VFD. P.S. Re photo #1, we don't see many Ohio State University Buckeye Leaf Mardi Gras beads from Alabama.

Seriously, Anna, you are surely sitting on a diamond in the rough. Like Burger says, if'n we can get Lusk to tear himself away from his salad with fat free dressing, you will have step one delivered and firmly in place. btw, that metal mansion is an absolute classic.

Glad you cleared that up for me! Never would I chance shooting pics of the VFD. They might break my camera!

Remember, burger, it's not the size of a man's participle that matters ...

Only Brettski can make the phrase "dangling participle" really mean something. Well, Theo did set him up rather nicely with that softball. I'm glad you don't teach 7th grade grammar, Bski.

Was that a double nintendo? Anna, please dont encourage them. LUSK, LUSK...bail us out here! Theo, instead of lobbing underhands to Bski, you should be summoning the zoo keeper.

I'm beginning to think that Lusk does not exist. This place is like the Wizard of Oz. Lots of monkeys but no Wizard in sight! Maybe if I click my heels together and say "There's no place like a pond, there's no place like a pond..." The mighty Lusk will swoop in and transport me to pond nirvana where leaks do not exist and the fish are always biting. LOL!!

Anna: Lusk does exist, he is the wizard behind the curtain. I love the love shack, my kind of place as long as there are no snakes??? If those walls could talk! It just seems wrong: Fire Dept. in jail for Arson? They will have a rip-roaring time at your place Anna. You are on your way to a really cool pond Anna, I just feel it. Is anyone on the county level on the ball down there? If the fire dept. could use your pond for Training Exercises, maybe you could get some stimulus money for it? Our asst. City Manager told the council he applied for stimulus money for our drain that need to be diverted and storm drain vortex cleaning systems, but turns out he lied - we may have to picket them and get the photos in the paper before all the papers go out of business.
