Given that I have made the mistake of going back to past homes and found
what I treasured destroyed I've actually wondered if I could leave my
current home (I've lived here longer than any other place) and if I did what
would I do with my pond and such. For years I have tried to naturalize our
yard and it is highly likely that anyone moving into our home would
immediately try to kill all the moss, turn any evergreen plant they could
into a square, rectangle or some Disney shape, and fill in my pond. I have
decided that I'm adopting out my fish to a wonderful woman I know that has a
much larger pond and then turning the pond into an almost bog garden for the
irises I will leave. AND I will never come back to see what the new owners
have done. DK

Just had potential buyers round for my house and they said they would make
my pond into a sandpit for the kids.... Gosh.

Not a safety issue, they are just not into ponds.

Maybe I should stipulate in the advertisement that the pond must remain a
pond for the next thirty years as per contract.

Hey... what do I care. I'll be too busy building my next pond at my new
abode to think about it.

Steve... and his/possibly was pond.
