Overnight the three ponds have become one 4 acre job. It makes the spring cleanup just a little harder than usual ...... especially chasing the woodpile where ever it lands.

That's ice in the picture on the right ...... the original size of the pond that just "popped up" and floated 100 feet south.

They come up quick and go down slow. At least the snow is either going or gone.

Mother nature does have her ways of spring cleaning at time. :(

Yep, I was watching my ponds the other night rise during the heavy rain{along with snow melt}. I did have one pipe 1/2 pluged but it still didn't crest the top.

Looks like you should just make a huge lake, private vacation spot. After all they're going to close all our parks might as well enjoy our homes before they take that away too.
