Walking bridge

I built a walking bridge for my pond yesteday:

Your very first??? Congrats! I have mixed feelings about handrails: on one
hand, it's a lot safer. On the other hand, it sure does hinder sitting on
the side and dangling toes in the water! Your project is coming along
nicely. At the cost of things these days, you must have won the lottery!

Yep all mine. I've been slowly developing it. I built the big pond/small
lake this past winter/spring. It's been a learning experience to say the
least.

I'm (almost) speechless ... how big is the lake?
What are the dimensions of the lake?
How much water do you have to deal with?

I don't recall you ever posting this!

The area is 6 acres or so. It includes a pond which has 4.5 acre of
surface
water, a wooded wetland, a submerged wetland, a marsh, and adjoining
woodlands. The pond contains open areas, a crayfish area, a turtle area,
and
a man made reef system. There are bird houses on the trees, protected
woodduck boxes on trees left in the water, and bat houses in some of the
trees that get a lot of sunlight. I have mineral blocks set out for the
larger wildlife like deer. The 6 acre area is beaming with wildlife. You
can
not believe how much wildlife benefits and how much wildlife comes in when
you have a big pond with different wildlife areas specifically for them.

The entire entire area is 38 acres of which contains high grass pasture,
low
grass pasture, the pond/wetland area, woodlands, brush piles, large
bushes,
downed trees, and tree lines. Wildlife is sustained from what the pond
produces, droves of cherry trees and rose bushes, acorns, raspberries, and
other food items.

I love wildlife so I've been developing the area to be a wildlife reserve
and to house my future home. This is why there's so many different
habitats.

Hi Sam,
If you would be so kind as to include either a very small guest house
on the property or even just a tiny spare room in the main house, I
would love to rent it from you!!! What a great place you're creating
there.

Add Paddleboat built for two.

Heck even a trailer hook up would be cool.

I got a paddleboat! They suck because my helpers spend they whole day
paddling around the pond while I do all the work. =)
