The pond at Kampitie had not been cleaned all through summer. So after the fish came in, Annikki got around to cleaning the pond to make it ready for her winter plans.
It was a real Herculean task. She worked late late into the night scrubbing it clean, taking out all that had settled at the bottom. These two pictures show how she worked getting it just the way she wanted.
Having got it clean, she has put the new water in and it looks great. Then she wanted to put some underwater lights.
Thanks to a suggestion from Susanna, we had a set of string neon Christmas lights. Again, with my McGyver spirit, I have rigged it up so that it can work on or under water, even in sub-zero temperatures.
Annikki is planning some major design issues once the pond freezes over. Wait for some interesting artistic developments on the pond front.
