Save the Fish!

We got 2 1/2 days of steady rain this past weekend courtesy of Hurricane Isaac. The pond started to rise.

On Friday afternoon, during a lull from the down pour, K8 and I rigged this burlap wall across the pond's spillway.

Why? To keep our fish from being washed out and down hill if the pond over flows  - something we didn't plan for very well back when we were building in 2010. Good news, the pond did not over flow this time.

  2. That's something experience gives us, wisdom. The pond looks good too!
    We watched "The Knight Templar," and it was good. It was also sad. What it really did for us was make the Book of Mormon stories seem real. Based on true events too.
