Fifteen years with a pond; no regrets!
In 1998 we added a pond to our landscape. This photo was taken a year later. I'm so sorry for the poor quality of the photo; it was made with an older digital camera.
Originally, our deck overlooked the pond.
We screened in our existing deck and added a stone fireplace (behind the tree) to the porch. This has fast become my favorite room. The arrow points to the location of the pond. I have an additional post on HT showing the porch.
The stone patio matches the stone in the fireplace on the porch.We have a smaller deck to hold our grills, in the right top of the photo.
The waterfall and stream bed make the sound of rushing water.
After fifteen years I still love the pond! It requires a one time per year cleaning and a couple of days a month trimming plants both inside and outside the pond. I add bacteria, once a week, to the water to keep it sparkling clean.
Truly, it's very pretty throughout the seasons. Thank you for stopping by!
