I remember his first little back porch pond he built for his Mom.  And then the swimming pool conversion.  He does amazing work.

Calif had a dry heat almost always.  Texas has humidity.  As they say "it's not the heat, but the humidity"
It is humid here now and hot as can be.  No Hurricanes, but a few Earth Quakes!

I was in S.A. this past spring, to protest the state's "White List" - the aquatic plants they were trying to ban.  Wish I had thought to look up Carlos, and hopefully see a few of his ponds.
