Water fall nearly finished, and Jets operating.

Here are some updated pictures of the waterfall pretty much finished.
The jets are operating and doing a wonderful job. the water is almost 100% clear now, the glare makes it look otherwise.
There are some pictures of the ponds neighboring wisteria climbing 50+ feet on a ponderosa pine.
There are some happy fish in some of the pictures.

Enjoy.

I will upload more later.

From one guy who has an ugly pond, your pond looks good.

Thanks man, but a beautiful pond does not constitute success or not.
You are by far a better koi keeper than I.

I am still learning, but slow nowadays. I am in that mentality to keep my fish in same or better condition when I bought them....Any ways why didnt you show up at the NorCal show? I was waiting for you to start my lesson on Show condition verus Pond condition lecture with Cocoyboy.

I was in roseville that weekend working, so I couldnt attend..
Were you expecting me? I think I said I couldnt go, but If I wasnt clear or something.. I'm really sorry...
How about we make another time we can get together and discuss that?
Where do you live?
My mom works with coycoyboy. It was really odd that my mom worked with a koi-bito'er. I think my mom and him even talked before. Freaky...

I guess my learning has slowed too, not because of lack of interest but college applications have a lot of my time. but I am trying to get back on track with learning.

How was Super Kindai at the show? were you able to speak with him?
I wish I was there....

Junichi is a very quiet person...he didnt say much, he was in his mode of looking at fish.

I wish more of my family would too, but I am happy with the ones that do.
My cousin Kaleb always says, "Eric, you still like those stupid fish?"
I say, "Yes Kaleb, I still like those stupid fish"
He still pretty immature..so I think nothing of it.
