The Pond

Given that we had a lot of water running down the hill, it had to be diverted around the house. When the drainage ditches took shape, we realized an opportunity to create a pond in front of the house. Unfortunately, the landscapers didn't get to it until very late in the year, so they have been laying the front walk stones and building the pond in freezing weather, but doing a great job. The front walk included a large piece of stone acting as a bridge over one of the drainage ditches.
