Local News Channel Filmed at my Gazebo

EddieWalker · Jul 12, 2015

Buddy of mine who owns his own pest control business called and asked if one of the local news stations could interview him about mosquito control at my pond. I said sure, and they where here an hour later. I took one picture of them from a distance, and then this is what we saw on TV.

We got a kick out of seeing it on TV. Wish they had included the entire gazebo and not just such a small amount, but it still looks good.

Eddie Walker's ranch in Tyler is the perfect breeding ground for insects. It is heavily wooded and there's bodies of water with shallow shores

I thought you were trying to promote it as a wedding venue.

Sounds more like a place to stay away from.

Cool to see, but it would have been nicer for you if they hadn't done what newbury noted... A shot of the gazebo roof would have been nice too. That is one cool structure you built. Still don't know how you can pull that stuff off....

Cool structure!

You bet EddieWalker - that's a mighty fine gazebo! Did you build it, and where did you get the plans? I'm beginning to get some pressure from the Misses for such a thing. Yours would be way over my skill level without some very good plans.

Thanks for sharing.

After I proposed to Karen, she decided we wanted to get married there. I had been wanting to build a gazebo on that spot since digging the pond, so we sat down and I drew some pictures on graph paper. She liked this one the best, so that's what I built. No plans, just that one sketch.

It took me six months, working on it every weekend. I finished the morning before our wedding.

I posted pics of the progress and some of the issues I came across building it, with lots of good suggestions from here. It starts with post number 2103
