14 years ago

I have been waiting to do this pond tour all year! It's a society in Victoria BC called: fortheloveofafrica, and they do an annual tour, it sounds sooo great! I am taking a fellow ponder(master gardener too!)and my camera!!!;-)

It is soooo cool that I just finished the rebuild of my pond this week and will be buying some fish this weekend too!

What a great day!!! It was amazing how much I enjoyed and learned stuff from meeting fellow ponders!!! There was 11 ponds featured on the tour, but only made it to 6, note to self: get a GPS!lol! I just assumed that people build a pond to have fish in it...not the case! The first 2 we went to had no fish, it seemed strange to see?! But then I clued in and made sure I looked up the ponds that described having fish!!! I was so excited after, that I stopped back at the Garden Center that I bought the pond tour ticket, and bought some fish to restock my newly rebuilt pond!!! Here is some of the pics I took:
