Ponds in Canada

[Tula]

Ponds and gardens are simply gorgeous! I'm glad you have your pond side retreat, as being a caretaker can be emotionally draining.

Colleen likes bright colors so I am sure it will be bright and cheery like the last time she painted it .Me I painted my rooms in 2004 and still the same color

I got wall paper too....yes I know want to brighten up the kitchen. Still deciding on when to get that project started. Need a few days off but that is hard to get. When I am off the frozens hardly get stocked and the shelves all go empty.... Its a hard job nobody wants to do. I have so many plans but not enough time to do everything.

We here are just happy our homes are intact after all the people staying with us .Happy to see family but 4 or 5 days was enough .I had to make an emergency visit to the dentist as I cracked a back tooth in half and it had to be taken out 4 stitch's later and a great dentist and I made it .I am a big chicken when it comes to a dentist .No pain and my sinus is OK also .The back teeth are close to your sinus cavity .Colleen no doubt you will get it done ,you go and go like the energizer bunny

yes I will get it all done soon. I have some wallpaper too and will put that up somewhere too. debating on where to put it....

Do not put it in moisture rooms like kitchens or bathrooms it peels and make sure walls are prep good so it is easy to take down .My house in NJ when I bought it had wallpaper in every room and boy was it hard to take down in most of the rooms because it was not installed right .I used every thing to get it down

I have one wall in the living room that I want to change. It should look good there and that wall could use a new look too. Once I get a day off I will do before and after pictures.

OK so I am back here cause its SPRING Finally!!! Snow is melting like crazy and I still have guppies alive and outside after one of the coldest February's on record!
Guppy pond was covered with a dome and little 80 gallon pond was kept warm with two fish tank heaters. I tried to catch all the guppies last fall but some were hard to catch so here we are in Spring and I still have some babies and a few adults that managed to survive that extra cold February and March!

See how my ponds did after the coldest February and March on record! Thank goodness for the cold frames covering the ponds that helped keep the ice away with just one red 1500 watt heater for all four large connecting ponds...

Wow, can't believe those hardy guppies in your front yard ! My favorite fish are your two biggest koi and I'm always happy to see they've survived another cold winter

Getting my pond ready for spring, ran all winter no issues. Well besides the gazebo frame collapsed from the huge snow fall. Hoping the koi spawn early summer so I can get more.

Glad everything ran snoothly for you and nice to see another Canadian wintering koi.

Fed the koi yesterday for first time as warm weather brought the koi up to water surface begging for food. I sure missed the warm weather and got started on planting flowers ...

Hello pond people!! Going to be working hard in the gardens this week so hope to get lots done as I have a week off to relax and enjoy my ponds.

Looks nice and springy at your ponds now.
I like watching Bear going around checking out and giving a good sniff to all your animal decor around the pond edge. Little Rio looks like she needs a cup of coffee
