Still not dried out enough to dig a pond, but I have quit beating myself up, by counting the days, since I bought the place.
The Conference was great. I still chuckle at how lively and animated, well, passionate Bill Cody, Greg Grimes, and many, many others are about what they do for a living. Loving your job is so very, very important.
The Conference has made me think about things with different perspectives, which is good, but confusing. I have a budget, but I also want to avoid re-work, later, which actually blows the budget, anyway.
My most recurring questions are: do I need a primary overlfow pipe that takes water from the bottom, if I am aerating a .5 to .75 acre pond? Is it sufficient to just take the excess overflow off the top, through a primary pipe, with an emergency overflow a foot above the top of the primary? It could save me some money to spend on the aeration if I do this from the top, with seepage collars, of course.
Thanks in Advance...
