Hello everyone!
Sorry I haven't been keeping up to date. We have been working on our house to get it sold so we can move out to the farm. Once we finally got it on the market it sold in 3 days for $16,000 more than we'd hoped!! Anyway the pond did get started in december but did not progress too far. They cleared the topsoil and did a little excavation and stuff to get dirt for a project they were finishing up. It has since been sitting on hold. We had a fair amount of snow in January. Today the temp got into the upper 50s so I went over there to see how things looked. Just as Matt Clark said there is a small "pond." There was a lot of water flowing into the area from the snow run off. I couldn't tell for sure but I would say there was about 2 feet of water in the deepest part of what they have done so far. I don't know what they are going to do about it. In a way it scares me that it will compromise things in the end. However, it was also pretty awesome to see the water flowing into the "pond" and it starting to take shape even if it is still in its infancy. If anyone can tell me how big a problem this water is I'd like the input! I'll try to keep up with the post but now I'm off to start packing!
