AAHHH!  You got your photo up!!

Don't we all wish our ponds could be lush year round?  I see that there is string algae starting to grow in my pond this morning.  >:(-  Will have to let the fish know they can't eat and poop since the water bacteria is still sleeping!!

I'll have to pull out my "Esther" brush to tame the hair  :o  lol

You've got a real tropical paradise there, Jerry. You wont have long to wait now!
I would say that in 2 months I might be able to see my pond again not just the pond deicer poking out of the ice and snow :)

What do you do with your turtles during your "winter"?

Croft, I don't do anything with the turtles,  They seem to do fine.  Our long lost Theresa says the "Brumate" when it's cold.  Hopefully not in front of the children! lol
