almost. Well we were on vacation last week and put the final rocks in place, bubbler stone working, but may need tweeking, bridge in and some plants transplanted. It got very hot so I stopped transplanting, didn't want to fry any more. DH is pleased, I like it to but have planting yet to do, next year it should be better. Added an 1800gph pump and homemade skimmer/filter. Have a gazzillion tadpoles, lots have been sucked in the skimmer mats but still plenty. Have heard at least 4 different types of frog/toad songs, the little tree frogs are the loudest. Best thing is I can walk the entire length of the house now inside and when the windows are open I can see and hear water, even in the bedroom. The falls and the pot have totaly different sounds but each is nice. A few lilies are blooming, but seeing as they are all splits from the main pond are smaller, I have one tropical about to bloom also. Even my first lotus bloomed today. Here are a few views to give you an idea.
