The liner I traded for a beer has been sitting in the yard doing nothing,

so
we decided to sink it. We started digging a couple weeks back and found

that
getting the hole perfect for the rigid liner was difficult. So we filled

it
partially with water to check level and to let it "sit in" a bit. I

figured
after a few days, I'd drain it and be able to dig the hole to be a bit

more
exact. Time passed, I neglected it, it rained, got more water in, etc. The
SO tossed a skeetr dunk in, and my neighbor dropped some excess WH in

while
I was away.

I went to drain it the other day...and wouldn't you know...I have tads and
at least one frog living it. I guess this thing stays until winter.
