The Pond

One of our favourite spots in the yard is the pond. Dug into what was already a slope in the hill in the back yard, the back of the pond acts as both retaining wall and waterfall feature. (Picture taken June/03.

Waterlilies, cattails, frogs, toads and goldfish all thrive in the natural environment created..

Lovely lavender, a hardy perenniel here and annuals like these purple and pink petunias add intense colour.

The Patio

Limestone hauled from a quarry up the peninsula and poured concrete "stones" make a great patio area to dine by the pone.During the hottest part of summer we put our hot tub down here.

The Waterfall

Flat limestone rocks stack to make a small waterfall that trickles musically and helps aerate the pond. This and a UV light keep the water clear of algae.

This ornate waterfountain was a gift from Keiths mom.
We love it!
