I dreamed I pulled my liner out last night, moved the fish into a weird holding spot in some mud lined w/liner and filled in a foot or so of the pond and stretched it out. Man it sure was easy to do that in a dream, just sayin :)

I plan on never pulling out my liner until something catastrophic happens. Hopefully that is a long, long time from now. No more digging, no more going bigger. I'm so thrilled that I can just watch it this year and not have to do the hard work. Just gotta finish my waterfall this year.

The lilies are growing like little weeds, popping leaves to the surface. They were even growing under the ice. Even saw a tiny frog, it jumped in the water before I spot it. Just heard the splash.

The bog is booming, pump being set up and pond running on Sunday, is my plan. Snow and cold hitting today/tomorrow so waiting until Sunday.

You never had a frog @callingcolleen1 ? Do you ever hear them at night around your area? They were really singing up a storm here last night w/it being so warm yesterday.

Fish enjoying the sunshine today. Plants growing good. My palm by the pond is really starting to grow now.
