We head home next week, bet I can turn my pond on again, it will be in the 50's and maybe stay there, maybe.
It's my favorite time of year on GPF!!

Do not like day light savings time. Much prefer real time.

Loved that about arizona, the time never changed.
While in the military it meant longer working hours in the field. Now, during summer it means more time for high heat. Even after dark it remains hot. Just dark heat. Remember one night around 10 pm it was about 101.
I'm just an old grump today.

I love having seasons, arizona was just too hot all of the time, maybe a month or two of coolness. Many Christmas's were 85-90 degrees.

Pond season is definitely starting up down here in the south. New leaves on the water lilies are starting to form down deep. Fish are becoming more and more active, Louisiana Iris are starting to really put on new growth. Female Koi are starting to plump up. I need the water the warm up a little more so I can make a dip in the pond and make a quick repair. Water temps are already 69, I'm shooting for closer to 75 before attempting the dive in. Hopefully we are almost done with the freezing temps this year. Got really close this week but only got to 33 for a couple of hours and back up to 62 today and 75 for Saturday. Even the Japanese magnolia is just about to start it's spring bloom announcing pond season and spring are right around the corner.
