Matt - I was getting kind of curious about your new pond. Shorty's map is right on the money, 30mi north of Des Moines looks pretty good but as the local weather gurus say.. that"pesky" high over southern Iowa is keeping us on the dry side. Its interesting how much more in tune to the weather you are when you own a pond. Keep up the faith Matt, I figure once Ceadmin gets started on his pond, you, me, Shorty and Lkz5ia will start getting his rain. \:D
