10 Reasons to Build a Pond
1. For the sweat, body aches, and blisters,
especially if you're over 40. I'm serious--it feels great. (I could do without
the carpel tunnel syndrome, though).
2. To practice landscape design and engineering.
3. To learn about hydrology and pond pump plumbing (say "pond pump plumbing" fast three times).
4. To learn about pond chemistry and ecology.
5. To learn about aquatic gardening.
6. To learn about fish care, including how to pronounce certain fish diseases.
7. To attract frogs and herons to your yard.
8. To understand water.
9. To gain the respect of the locals (I think the UPS and FedEx guys idolize me now).
10. To look at it afterward and say "Holy shit! Did I do that?!"
