Pond Project (cont.)



Well, I ran out of rock while completing the upper watercourse of the pond. I'm about two dozen stones short, at least. I need to get more Mexican beach pebbles and a couple nice flat stones to serve as weirs for the waterfalls anyway, so it's back to the stone yard tomorrow. I'm still waiting on some expandable waterfall foam (to seal cracks between rocks in the waterfall area) and a Ground Fault Interrupter to come in the mail. I also ordered a pond vacuum and skimmer net to keep things clean. The unexpected thunderstorms we had on Sunday caught me off guard--I didn't have my temporary drainage set up yet so a good deal of silt dumped into the pond. I drained it yesterday (as you can see) and scrubbed it out this afternoon. I'll refill it when all the pieces are in place (pump, filter, etc.).
