Here's a short video of my quick stop in Indianapolis to meet Melanie, see her pond and amazingly adorable horses. http://youtu.be/FpPUH3azlmA Thanks, Melanie, for the tour. |

Thank you Don. I was very happy to meet you and get the chance to talk for a while. I have enjoyed watching many of the video's and it was nice to finally get to talk to you in person. You are always welcome to come visit anytime. Hopefully next time the weather will cooperate a little more. |

I see DP got you on camera before you could run and hide like I would :lol: Your pond is looking super but I think you need part of my iris planted around it next year. :) It's nice to see how everything plays into each other which is something you can't really see in pictures. LOVE the red pump and you better keep an eye on it cause it would look nice at my pond :ph43r: The kids seem to know quite a bit about the mini's. Nice kids. Thanks DP for taking the time to narrate, edit and upload the video so we all can share. You are good man Charlie Brown. B) T |

Great pond Mel. Love the water falls you made out of the stones. Do you have them glued somehow to the outside of a bucket?..........The little baby is adorable. ........Great work again Don with the video. |

I am always open to suggestions T and I love flowers. Don has a lot of great ideas. :thumbup: Wish I could steal him away for a few days. He gave me some instruction for edging my pond so the liner would be hidden. A nice project for the future. The boys live across the street. As soon as the school bus doors open in the evening they run for my place. They are both good boys and very anxious to please. They want to help all the time and lately I am running out of things they can do. I do know the horses are loving the attention. They get brushed every single day. The younger one who is just 8 years old told me I am his best friend. :) Now isn't that sweet. Now that the babies are a little older I have been concentrating on rebuilding the back of the waterfall. The pond kind of got overlooked since they were born. Hopefully I didn't kill off too many of the plants when I dug it out. |

Thank you Whisper. The tub was an old water tub I used when I first got my horses. It was too small so it was repurposed. I used Red Devil King Kaulk to glue the stones on the outside. I hope to pick up some waterfall foam today so I can get that area finished. I bet I have rearranged the flat rocks at the edge a dozen times. :faint: |
