Hi Everyone -
My name is Heather and along with a lot of help from my DH Jim, we have a lovely 1800 gal goldfish pond fed by a 15' stream from a very small header pond that we built two years ago. After really enjoying the visits from frogs last summer, we dug a second pond (at about 800 gal) this spring devoted to the frogs. It's very woodsy, with floating logs, pollywogs, lots of duckweed and a few mosquito fish. Pics at http://community.webshots.com/user/heathersmyth Our property is nearly four acres of hardwood trees. In the back there are vernal ponds. A lot of our pond plantings and decor are found on scavenger hunts in the surrounding woods. Nice decayed logs, moss for between rocks, even blue flag! Kept aquariums for years but do enjoy the ponds much more. Some of our original 39 cent feeder fish are now 6 - 7" long and beautiful. We are early 50's, with five grown children, one married. No other pets currently. Lost our cat a few years ago and DH says "No more until you are retired". I really enjoy this friendly group and really appreciate the knowledgeable help found here!

Just to see where everyone is from and what other interests and hobbies they may have? |
