FR, I came up Sunday. I think it rained Saturday. Nothing since. The water is still right at the bottom of the pipe. So, it hasn’t dropped in three days. I generally just measure down to the water from the bottom of the pipe. I’ll be back Friday I’ll see if it’s dropped any. Possibly the soil has expanded back with saturation? I don’t know.
I’ve been on the tractor for the last three days. I just got down to the pond to jump in and cool off. Not sure of the temp, but 3” down it seems very cold. Ha! Reminds me of a Seinfeld episode. Haha!

RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (decreasing), SMB, and HSB (only two have been seen in 5 yrs)
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
