    Looking good there, sir. You've definitely earned your drink today! Don't get drunk enough to swallow the fish.

    Gorgeous!! I could use some orientation, where is your house in reference to this pic? That is the base of what you built the deck and pond on?

    What are the rules there for a fire pit?

    I'm only allowed to use for cooking food so always keep a pack of hot dogs nearby

    As far as I can find a occasional fire is fine as long as you don’t burn coal . Spent the day chopping Old decking up for fire pit

    Hope your old decking wasn't pressure treated wood. Fumes are Toxic! Beautiful ponds
