Heck that dirt has long since been utilized elsewhere that I removed
form my pond when I dug it...I went deep as I always hated seeing the
typical ponds in this area that are usually only 4 or 5 feet deep,
looking so bad when they start to loose water with evaporation and
rely on rainfall to fill. I went deep for more water, cooler water and
more capacity.
