I am in Baton Rouge - and honestly I guess I want the pond to be nice to look at, allow kids to catch fish and a little swimming would be nice too. I hope to have some time this fall to do some planting around the pond - a few cypress trees iris' etc.

I am hoping that the pond will be full this fall and that I can get the contractor back out to add some dirt in the low areas to reduce my watershed as well.
