Pond project, and some other stuff...

[Typhoon]

As I have mentioned in other posts, I am currently having a 4 acre pond built on my property. I am going to post pictures here from the first scoop of dirt all the way until its full of water. Im taking lots of pictures. So check back on this post from time to time, as I will continually update it. Also, just for the heck of it, I will also be throwing random pics of my property in the mix and explaining them as well. Enjoy! Pics to follow..

Here we are breaking ground... a lot of tree removal ahead of us as 3 acres of the 4 are in the timber. Thats my TC29 in the pic of course.. I think its a little envious of the D5H. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

This is a picture of where the dam will be built. This is a picture of the valley it will go in. The top of the dam will go from where im standing, straight across to the top of the hill with the corn on it.

Burning... Burning... we had to use a few tires (the epa loves that) to get the green stuff to burn.
