i think if I took the time and not rushed it, it would turn out a lot better. And not just buy any old rock I find either. Lol

I had a plan from the get go for the most part and that helped out quite a bit. I am still going to add some more sand and rock to fill it in a little more but for now it's doing it's thing :)

Ill prolly be in your neck of the woods on a chase someday when the lows get pushes up to the high plains and carried to the lakes. Fall time is more likely. El niño and la niña really determine the jet stream and ocean temperatures. Its a crap shoot.

Looking forward to the day sir :)

Would be fun and when the time comes, I'm in! In the mean time I'll just sit by the fire and watch this bad boy roll in...

It is indeed, finally wet. And I'm already learning some things like right now with no return it's evaporating 1 gallon a day so I'll definitely have to keep ontop of that. Shouldn't be too much for my Tunze to handle though :)



There's got to be life in it now even if you can't see it:)

A little afternoon shot from yesterday...
