If you are following the-drain-the-pond saga, you know Art had to go for a bigger “gun” – or track hoe.
Going deeper was incredibly muddy and mucky.
As the balance of pond water ran out into the meadow, a cow came to investigate a new water source.
As the pond emptied, we saw a chunk of something that looked like wood. My sister Nancy said, “I wonder if that is the remains of Dale and Clair’s raft.” It just might be.
Goodness how muddy all that goo is! When it’s all finished, I hope the goo will be buried by the rock lining and by more pasture.
This is why it was time to clean it out and start over.
It seems like it lasted a good long time — almost a full lifetime — hopefully it will last another lifetime!
