New Pond Rockwork Finished!
We finished the new rock work for the pond and I think it looks better than before the leak! These are all rocks picked up on our property. They match the rocks on the side of the house and the fireplace. Often you can see fossils embedded in them, like little scallops or clams as this used to be a sea!
I wish I had put the cushions on the furniture before I took the photo, but you can see a bit of the hammock down in the shade garden where I like to read.
The stuff floating and littering everywhere are tiny flowers off the tree that is over the deck. We have had wind and rain and it is a mess! I blow the deck off to try and lessen the amount that gets in the pool but it is a loosing battle for now. The filter needs cleaning often.
Some of the rocks are BIG and HEAVY! Thank goodness my husband is a willing helper!

I keep checking back to see if you have blogged more. What I’m beginning to think about after deciding your pool is beautiful, is the fact that here, I would always be thinking about the snakes in the rocks and pool. Yuck!!
We took a trip out west for a couple for a couple of weeks. Nita house sat for us and quilted the whole time She wants to know if this is to be her annual sewing vacation!!!!

What a peaceful and beautiful place! I would love to be there with my camera and my sketchbook. It is a perfect artist’s oasis!
