Hey lori....I'm with Roger ....you look in pretty good shape;

but you may think about some type of two-stage waterfall.....

maybe use a sudden drop (kind of a "niagra falls") to a middle area that it could form a small pool, then continue down into main pond area.

another idea would be changing directions.....kind of a "rambling stream"
appraoch!

Bernie

P.S. Hey Roger..... Ponds are one of my favorite areas and would like to drop
in here as often as I can find time to contribute....

so maybe we can compare notes!!?? ([acronym:9a9a687391="Laughing out loud"]LOL[/acronym:9a9a687391]!!)

I think I may know what you are talking about but a drawing or photo would help me to make winter plans for doing it this summer -- love your idea
