All Right i'm Stumped
The top terrace wall had to be back-shoveled and the concrete
pieces of the wall unstacked. They'll be used later in rebuilding it. Another large elm
stump was to the left and had to be removed. i'm planning ahead to the next small falls
under the Judas tree. |

The Terrace Footings
The plastic fencing was mortared into the rows to strengthen the
wall. We'll also use land anchors to hold the wall up. The waterfall part of the wall is
going to be leaning out, while the rest leans in. |
Up She Goes
We used two strings to find the level of the curved wall. We
have about three more rows to go.We used a mixture of half concrete and half mortar
because we wanted the stuff to stick but there were large gaps to fill in-between the
pieces and mortar's not too strong. i tried using mind control to get the shovel to
move...it's not working |

Almost There
Only another row to go and then we start on the liner. The
projection for the falls is in place. It's going to be about a 4 foot drop to the next
pond. Just 2 more ponds, 2 more falls and the river. |
Inside-Out
The view of the top pond will be excellent from the house. We'll
have to figure out some sort of weir so we can keep fish in it. |
