Planned to build a greenhouse but never did as I knew I might lose interest someday. During that period, my pond had nothing but water. So I turned the pond into waterlilies pond. Now I am back to koi since June of this year. Lucky I did not back fill my outdoor pond and my indoor pond is still in good conditions. As Pat Christenson said to me few months ago at the PNKCA convention that koi keeping was still in my blood.
