Every day since all the rain started Papa has driven Sadie to the pond and back to check and see how much deck was showing underneath. Every day he would come home and say, "we need about 12 more inches". Well, last week after a two inch rain, he came home and said the pond was full. The water is even with the deck. The overflow is running. My comment was, "so much for a three year project. It's done in about six months!" But--now the fish have to grow and some more have to be added. It's going to be a wonderful place for the grandchildren this summer. Someone even added that a rope swing would be great. NOT!! This Nana's heart couldn't stand it!!
The rockers and the swing will get more inviting as the weather warms up. I can see many afternoons spent out here with the children. I thank the guys for building this great "Lake Okhissa II" and God for filling it up so quickly.
