Default Pond's Open in Hamilton - Finally!

I've been a little slow in getting the pond back up & running this spring.
It only happened this afternoon actually. There wasnt' too much accumulated
muck to scoop out, so that didn't take too long. The fish were certainly
happy to be back in there too, especially after having spent the winter in a
big rubbermaid tub in the house. Now if only I can keep it all from being
trashed by Maisy "The Submersible Basset Hound". Her specialty is stealing
water plants. She has also shown a fondness for chewing electrical cords,
so I guess I'll be burying the one for the pump. The fun never ends...

Ya know...if you drapped part of the pump cord into the pond, you could
break her of two habits at one time.

That would test the GFIC also.

Mine is open too ..... just in time for an algae bloom I guess .....
now that the sun finally came out. Sure didn't need to add any water.
