Ok, a handful of pics from the recent progress. The perimeter is really coming together, though it seems like my project is taking longer than the examples I've seen here. \:D

Hard to see from this distance, but that is an enormous cottonwood in the middle of the picture. The shore went right up on it, so I had my dirt guy build up the banks around it. Hope it survives.



The larger grassy area is where the planned camp jetty will be.



I like this picture. Gives a nice perspective of the jetty and the size of the pond, with the kid running towards me.











Hard to tell by this picture, but this is a large deer print in the soft clay we've uncovered. The deer are loving this open area we've created "for them".





This is the proposed beach area off the camp jetty. I hope it's wide enough to make it deep enough to jump off a dock into.
