St. Patty's Day

The "storm event" Saturday night was a bust! Geesh - got all worked up for nothing. Just some rain. But we'll take it - we need it. All the flowers and trees are budding and getting ready to bust at the seams! I think Spring has arrived! Although you wouldn't know it by today's thermometer...brrr.....with a stiff wind. But relief is in sight.

As soon as the water warms up a bit, we're going to drain the pond and basically start over. We've determined that the leak is in the waterfall. We've had the falls turned off for a month or so now and viola! No Leak! That means disassembling the waterfall structure. Which basically means re-doing the whole pond. We'll get it done eventually - I miss my fish! And the birds are quite ready for the net to come off so they can get back in the "shallow end" and splash around for their afternoon baths. And the frogs will come back, and the dragonflies, and the squirrels - all of God's little creatures.
