We still check in most days
(but accepting that you possibly do not
consider us as "oldies" !)

Yes, but there's not much going on, since the pond has a good foot of ice
covering it, and the bass are keeping to themselves down there.

*Our pond isn't really the usual "water feature" so much as a "farm pond,"
though this locale is most certainly NOT a farm (those folks have to work
_way_ too hard)!

Note to those in this thread.
the more populated and active version of rec.ponds is located in a
moderated Google group that put an end to the trolls and spam in rec.ponds.

I am a more recent joiner than that.

I'll gladly claim oldness. ;-) Looks like we didn't renew RPM, and
hopefully maybe the old trolls are not longer checking RP after so many
years have now passed. Yay!

And if people can simply ignore them, they'll starve to death....
My "farm pond" is doing fine, with several pairs of redwings taking up
residence in the usual places amidst the cattails. No bass spawning yet,
but I swear I can hear Sinatra being played on warm evenings.

Totally agree on the ignoring part.

I'm just gearing up this year. Last spring I was so much further ahead,
course it didn't hurt that my yard was chosen to be on the Secret Garden
Tour that was the first weekend after Memorial Day. At least the weather
was cooperative. This spring hasn't been favorable at all for us weekend
warriors and now everything is needing to be done at once it seems.... and
the body says: "I don't think so." ~ jan

I just need to get back into the habit of checking in here.

Schools out, so hopefully more time. RP is easier, not dependent on mods
and such. We just have to hope the tr*lls have moved on to other venues and
the pursuit of their unhappiness. ~ jan
