Frolicking Ponds

	Dear Keith, Thank you so much for a job well done! Even though I had a difficult time envisioning what the pond would look like when completed, I'm glad I trusted your instincts. Your ideas for using the existing deck and walkway were right on target. Russ and I also appreciate your diligence in checking back with us to make sure everything is operating properly. We have really enjoyed the pond. One of my initial concerns was leaves falling and accumulating in the pond. Interestingly, skimming the leaves became one of the highlights of my day. It gave me some needed peaceful moments at the end of the day.
We have had dinner parties outside, as well as family get-togethers. Everyone is enchanted by the sound of the running water and koi. Our grandchildren especially enjoy dangling their feet in the water and watching the koi. We look forward to seeing the plants develop this spring and hope to add more fish shortly. We had a resident frog move in last summer and hope he returns again. This winter the birds used the waterfall as both a bath and drinking source. There always seems to be something new developing. Thanks once again for the wonderfull addition to our yard.
