If so, good news for the fish in the Atlantic Ocean. Dust fertilizes.

Big pond's dropping like a rock, and now I'm usually in by noon. Summer's here.

Hoping the AC gets fixed before the temps heat up again. I'm not in Texas, but it's hot enough! I feel for you poor suckers.

I'm watching my pond close. Surface temp had dropped to the mid 80s with the recent rain and cloud cover, but the weather's been in the mid-upper 90s and the rain chances are nill for at least another week. Boat is sitting ready in case I need to stir some water.
