What does your landscaping around your pond look like?

I guess we can't all be good at everything.

JUST A SHOT FROM AROUND THE POND. AND MY USUAL TERRIBLE TYPING View attachment 157855View attachment 157856

Wow! Beautiful!

Oh yeah, it's a never-ending job!

Just for the fun of it, here are some photos of my non-pond landscaping project: I found some really huge paver stones on FB Marketplace. I just had to go and dig them out and transport them (took three car loads with my little Vitara). But what to do with them?
Now, right off our main back patio is a huge pomegranate tree underplanted with ferns. Every year I was pouring way too much water into keeping those ferns alive. So why not take out most of them and add a patio? Here's the work in progress... And no, it wasn't at all easy figuring out the best way to piece this jigsaw puzzle together, when each rock was too big to lift. I had to roll them, pinwheel style, into place.

And here's the (almost finished product) just need to plant more thyme between the pavers.

When you're that good at ponding, who cares how you type?

Oh yeah, you got that right! Every time he posts a photo, it makes me rethink my life choices.

Besides, @GBBUDD , your typing gives us the same kind of puzzle-solving pleasure as @combatwombat gets out of Wordle! ;-)
