Phyllis and Jim Hurley
Phyllis and I are in Mississippi.
Phyllis is a school administrator of a K-12 system and I am a minister and professor of family therapy. I am 59, she is 58. We got into ponding about 6 years ago when we built a 2900 gal pond and then 1000 gal of veggie filters on a berm by the pond. I remember so well the 500 gal my dad built with his dad in California. It is really my intro to ponding...over 50 years ago. I was especially impressed by the free baby goldfish that appeared in his pond. We have three boys (24,28 and 33). All grown and out of the house. I do a lot of gardening (salad) and hunting. Phyllis Is very involved in field trips and such for her students. I have been working on our yard to get it to a point where one old guy with a riding mower can handle it. It is about 2 acres, so that is a task. We enjoy sitting by the pond when it is cool enough. My kids keep threatening to buy me a tractor with a scoop and several loads of dirt when I retire...in a decade! They say it is easier that all the dirt work they have done with me. -- ____________________________________________ See our pond at: home.bellsouth.net\p\pwp-jameshurley Ask me about Jog-A-Thon fundraiser (clears $120+ per child) at: jogathon.net "matrix j" wrote in message ... Just wondering if rec.ponds ever does a roll call every now and then? Just to see where everyone is from and what other interests and hobbies they may have? |
