Not much to update on the water level. When it rains, it's too light to cause any runoff. The ground just soaks it up.

I'm still droping an inch a week, it's getting warming and it looks like it might be dropping faster now. I'll know for sure this weekend, but I figures it's normal evaporation.

An exiting note is that the grass is starting to break through. I have to get down real close to the ground to see it, bit it's there, so I'm happy.

Saturday I was at Walmart with my wife and we spoted a minnow trap in the fishing area. It was cheap and I thought it would be fun to catch them in my small pond and let them go in the big one.

Here's my 6 year old son with the trap.



We've been getting from 20 to 40 fish a day with it.



And it's his job to catch them in the bucket, look to see if any are pregnant, and then let them go. He loves his job!!!

It's not how many ideas you have, but how many you make happen.

3/4 and 4 acre ponds.
