Shareholders Pond Spring 2005 Update

Happy new year, BV.

Isn't it nice to see the ponds coming alive!

All our plants are getting under way. Lillies, arrowhed, clery, W, parrots
feather, etc. Not in full swing, tho. And the koi did grow over the
winter! The largest are well over 24" if tails count.

Have to replace our kiddie pools. The rocks folded them and we have cracks
in the dises. Jim dug them out and is installing edpm lined ponds. The 5'
diameter by 12" pools will be replaced by 5' by 5' by 15" edpm. More system
water. Lots of digging! The bottom drains will be floor fittings for
toilets.

For the shareholders, an annual, spring report...

Iris peaking above water surface. Odd, I thought I sank them to the
bottom.
Do I have nearly 4 foot tall Iris already? I have to split them ASAP.

Water Parsley or watercress popping up all over the place.

At least two large green frogs are already up and basking near the VF.

Possibly lost a comet, but not sure. He was moving slowly near the surface
a
few days ago. Today he is nowhere to be found.

And of course, with all the rain in MD, we're orange again.
