new, improved pond in digging stage
 
No more L-shaped (too much chance for leak), wider (lillies need room to
spread), deeper (heron a problem), bigger (waterfall and plants kept seperate),
away from house (kids party goers leave beer caps in pond), lower (no more
raised pond, want natural look), flatter (less chance of pockets of detrius),
more shelves (what a hassle to keep plants on the bottom up-right), longer hose
underwater (move pump to do the cleaning), and most importantly to be the Greek
god I always wanted to be- create system that actually works. Thanks for all
the advice.Regards, Tony, Pond Baseball
