It is good to get help in. The girls were quite happy to contribute. We picked up a couple of containers of river rocks from Dodds & Erwin. Caitlin, a hydrogeologist, is the expert! My granddaughters are budding scientists, too!
The frogs definitely like your pond. As the natural ponds have dried up, they probably think you did it just for them. Your granddaughters are sweet, and sure seem to take the job of helping seriously. Lotsa rocks and then play time! — K

Thanks, both. The pond measures 100" long, 70" wide, and 27" in the deepest part. I kept digging, then ran out of steam, but not liner. THere is a shelf on one end, where the frogs sit. Won't be long before they sleep for winter, but I'm enjoying the fruits of my labour!

What an undertaking. And so well documented. I'm convinced never to try that! Enjoy it while you may.
Great job on the pond Jill. I love it. What a great little focus point to your yard as well as a piece of nature.
