Finally we have started phase 2. Phase 1, i.e. the construction of ponds is not quite finished. They just need to lay down some rock on the path and fix one problem but everything after that is done.

Well is in and electric is almost run to the well and down to the pond. Trench is dug for the man-made stream (long term project)

I had several high school and college kids come out on Saturday to plant 100 blue spruces, install structure, build garden beds, plant grass seed, etc... They worked really hard. We are headed up to plant another 100 trees in two weeks.

Structure around the pond. This was a lot of fun to place. We also built a number of Smallmouth beds based upon America's favorite pond magazine - Pond Boss


Here is a picture from the top of the land showing all three ponds. If you look carefully, you can see some of the trees that now border the property.



thanks to all for your help over the past 8 months.
