Finally! I've been lucky that it's stayed so warm here, today has been the first real cool day we've had. It all seems to have been fairly uneventful, but I still have a lot of landscaping left to do. I think a lot of the finer touches will wait for spring. I was pleased that the folds aren't too bad, considering the wrinkles I had with the underlay. There's still a lot of plumbing to do, but I'm not even going to cut the liner for the skimmer or bottom drain until spring. The epdm has a bit of a pleasant bluish tinge compared to the old PVC liner. It's been a little quiet here lately, so I just thought I'd let you know that some of use northern procrastinators are still ponding. :-)

How big is your pond? I too am building a new one, the liner went in yesterday along with some field stone, today I hope to finish lying the Stone "Phyllis and Jim" <jimandphyllisrp@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1193742948.883080.114570@19g2000hsx.googlegroups.com... > Nice to hear of the progress. > > Any pics? > > Jim >

Cap stones will have to weight for the week-end. I want to relevel the edge in any event.

Here's what I have so far http://www.geocities.com/exar119/Pond101.html?1193878974934 I stink at web design so this is the best I could do...

my next step is to trim the liner, then the foliage, I'm hoping to have it finished before the weather turns nasty cold "Phyllis and Jim" <jimandphyllisrp@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1193919929.307788.4750@50g2000hsm.googlegroups.com... >I like the history aspect of your site.

Very nice, I won't have a pond that big until the next life. :-(

> > Not luck ~ global warming. Yeah Global warming, I mean the earth's temp rose by 1 degree in the past 100 years.... man that's a catastrophe.. Good thing we have Al Gore flying around in his private jet to tell us to cut back on fuel consumption because after all man is causing it
