My pond runs all winter, zone 2/3

I can see why @callingcolleen1 - you have a beautiful youthful glow! All that fresh air and sunshine does you good!

Thanks. Some days though I really look and feel my age. I think the hard work at the "Stupid Store" ha ha ... Keeps me on my feet and have to work hard in freezer all the time.
We are lucky this month and its like "indian summer" during the days and frosty at night.
My bones are getting old and some days I am so stiff I can hardly move.
And I barely drink... Barely had two onces of wine and that was enough to make me very sleepy...

Got to get that greenhouse together! I want to clean it out and hang new bubble wrap that I have been collecting/recycling from work to hang inside greenhouse ceiling.

Then I want to make a little bigger guppy pond and got a nice big black 20 gallon tub and going to pre build it into shelf with rocks around it so it looks natural and make a little stream that can flow into little pond. Have to do that Monday as I will be working long hours next three days at work.

Then secretly have "come out of the closet" and I have been researching FLAT EARTH and now I believe the earth is flat! Just sounds crazy till you research it and discover shocking mind blowing information... Just curious if anybody here heard about it? It's ok to laugh as lots of people laugh at first. I have now about 20 Flat Earth friends I discovered at work.

Hubby stole her from me and she sleeps on his foot every night! Its ok cause were a "family" and old Bear dog loves and protects her too. What would we do without our sweet doggies.

I decided to re position some of the solar lights and now they are over two of the cattle panel cold frames that are covering the koi ponds for winter. I think they looked just awesome tonight!

Happy Full Moon too!!

It's beautiful @callingcolleen1, it look like an enchanted garden.

I love it @callingcolleen1 and love how you get into the spooky Halloween stuff!
You had me laughing at the bird skeleton in the cage

What happened to the nice weather? Its cold here and down to minus 15 Celsius at nights. Ground is frozen now...
So far I have not needed the 1500 watt heater, Cattle panel cold frames cover the ponds and seem to keep the ice away so far. I will be using the 1500 watt heater when ponds start to ice over.

Everything is good in the greenhouse but I need to "clean" up the greenhouse and trim some plants and stuff. Been at my moms place at Haven View lots and WOW did I ever make her the most beautiful Christmas room ever!! I should do some pictures when I am done. Just need to get up her "skinny" tree in the corner and everything will be complete. If it's my mom's last Christmas it will be the MOST beautiful Christmas room EVER!!
I am going to pick up a couple presents (that mom would have bought, like slippers and socks) and cut the paper to fit and get my mom to do the "momny style wrapping, we could always tell who wrapped cause mom's wrapping was never perfect but we loved it!) And then I will try to get her to scribble "mommy" and Wayne and Glenda can have one last present to open from mom. I want everybody to come and feel like they are "coming home for Christmas".. The two other sibblings are too far across the globe and won't make it ...

What a fabulous idea to do this for your mom and family! If I lived closer I would like to visit her and her new Christmas room! Looking forward to a few pics of it when you can.

Colleen, I bet your Mom's room is beautiful, how very kind of you to make Christmas special for her and your family.

We put up the pool solar cover over our pond yesterday. Still running water fall and filter for now.

I have to ask as I can't help it as I'm curious, do you really think the earth is flat? I have heard that there is a group of people with the believe in a flat earth, but honestly (no offense intended) I just thought it was an internet gone wild story. I have to say you are the first person who I have met who believes the earth is flat, so I think I've been taken by surprise. I can't wrap my mind around the flat earth theory as I cannot make sense of it, I'm a firm believer in the globe, but to be fair we are all entitled to our own beliefs. I suppose this is one nice thing about the internet, you meet people with different ideas than your own. I have some moon landing pictures that I collected some years ago, I will post a picture for you when I can.
