| The Finished Pond |
There used to be a swimming pool (for humans) on this site, so the pond site itself was already level. Cary wanted to do most of
the work himself, so after we designed it, away he went!

Wait! Is that Deb with a shovel full of dirt?? Nice work,
Deb! So how many of those shovel fulls did you actually

The pond is finally dug and we're ready to set the liner.

Upon completion of this pond, Cary said the funniest thing
I've ever heard a client say to me. We had finally finished
to cool off in the shade, and he said, "Frieda, if anybody

I'm gonna tell them to let YOU dig the darn thing!"
