Post-Project Review and Reflections

update all right you guys first off thank you for joining me on Pond week it has been a couple weeks since we finished up all of the finished Landscaping so I'll just give you a quick overview and but we are not done even close yet uh I still got to figure out what the heck to do here I hate this area right here so that's going to get changed I have attempted to put the plants in but freaking Frack my two German Shepherds really do enjoy tearing everything out that I plant so all of these have been uprooted by them and moved um down here in the lower pond it's been a couple weeks and it does take a bit for the clarity to come in and so the water Clarity is finally started you can actually start to see down to the bottom of the pond and let's go and see exactly how well our turf establishment blanket has been holding up I got my buddies they follow me everywhere I go and here's the slope that we reestablished and we've had just constant rain and this slope has not I I haven't lost anything I I don't have any cracks I don't have any crevices I don't have any divets this slope is held up like a champ and this the secret is that Turf establishment blanket now the plants on the other hand some of them don't like the transplant process but the slope itself the dirt which is what I'm concerned about seems to be doing pretty good and we're not even close to being done we've got so much more to do around here it'll be a work in progress and Ever Changing but I'll give you my two cents here my unbiased two cents um I think if you were going to do any Landscaping in your backyard a pond is probably the top thing if you want to just get out and enjoy your yard I've watched for the last 3 weeks and yesterday I caught my wife sitting out on a stone in the middle of the pond my Sun comes out here every single day feeds the fish my grandkids have been over more in the last 3 weeks fishing in my pond they're in there with Nets they're not fishing with hooks they're in there with Nets trying to catch everything um it's just I mean it is interactive it's mesmerizing if you can bite the bullet and put in a pond I would 100% say go for it it is better than a patio better better than a wall better than almost any other Landscaping that I've done just for what it brings to your property but more importantly what it brings to your life and what I mean is you will notice that that pond is like a magnet it will draw you in it will draw other people in and since this is my first…
