Beautiful! I bet it's so relaxing to sit out there and listen to the waterfall. I love water features, but I need to wait till my kids wouldn't use it as a wading pool...I'm thinking in 20 years or so.

Patti,
I sure came to this site at the right time. What a beautiful pond and pergola/patio. It yells relaxation. Well, I was going to say it speaks relaxation, but I realized it was a lot more important than that. Enjoy, enjoy.
I loved the slide presentation and the music. Good job!

Patti, I was going to ask if you have any trouble with the koi? Like keeping them alive? And what about the winter?

Well they arnt Koi Kathy,,,,the biggest one is a sarassas, multi colored ones are shabunkins, two comets and two barbots. We did have two kois but we lost all our fish after christmas this year. We slowly restocked the pond this year. Yup its hard keeping them...by the time you realize they are sick,,,,,its usually too late. Some of the ones we lost we had for 3 years. You get attached to the little buggers you know.We keep them down the basement in a kiddy pool., in the winter....yup you heard me right.
