Neat saw.

We weren't doing a lot of basking a couple of days ago. It hit 7.3 degrees at my place. At noon, I drove 70 miles to find out what the situation was. My entire water system was total ice. My pump was the main thing. I had drained everything in the well house and blown the lines if the house. However, the valve leaked a little and the pump was frozen solid. I'll be back in a couple of days to check it out.

You know that windshield washer anti freeze that is supposed to protect down to zero degrees? I put some in the toilet tank and bowl to keep it from expanding and breaking. That's after I get most of the water out. That stuff, blue in color, was frozen to a really hard slush. What do you guys use for something like that?

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
