Welcome back!

Let me know when you're ready and I'll send you a big bag of water
hyacinth.

It's been over two years, but I finally have both a newsgroup connection and
pond plans.

It's nice to see that some of the old regulars are still here.

Life goes well here in Nova Scotia. We can't keep the sort of pond I had in
Ontario, given the herons, kingfishers and ospreys (I doubt an osprey is a
real problem for pond fish, but who knows), so there'll be nothing more
than feeder goldfish in it - and I fully expect "feeder" to be the
operative word - but we should be able to manage a 500 gallon above ground
pond, attached to our deck. Filtration will be non-existent, as I live
off-grid, but I'll probably attach a small solar panel for a daytime water
feature.
