I didn't see Joe today. Probably a good thing because she would have been pissed at me as I drained the bridge pond this morning. I didn't think it would take me long to toss rocks and get the pond in ship shape. I guess I wasn't thinking.
I tossed rocks until my tosser was too tired to toss. I must have moved a couple of tons of stone. It seems at one time there was enough rocks in the pond to cover everything. Then you move just one rock and you have a hole that requires two rocks to fill. I moved rock until I just didn't have any energy left.
I ate lunch at 11 AM. That helped but by 1:30 or 2:00 PM I was out of gas again so I just gave it up until Friday.
I am pretty close to throw'n my last rock in the bridge pond though. That's the good news. The bad news is after inspecting the waterfall that feeds the bridge pond I need to take it apart and put it back together again with "pucky" instead of mortar. So I will once again be spread'n the black goo on my hands, arms and even my legs.
I think I need to come up with a name for this waterfall. Maybe as a tribute to Star Trek I should name it "3 of 5." Nah, not catchy enough. Maybe in tribute to Niagara Falls (I saw the falls once with Don Moser... very romantic) I could name it "Viagra Falls" as the water goes down not up. That's a little catchy though not on a par with Humpty Dumpty Falls. After watching the news these past few days I could name it "Stock Market Falls." How 'bout "Water Falls." I just don't know. If anyone has any ideas I'm open.
So when Friday rolls around I'll be back at it. First I'll finish toss'n rock and then I'll tackle the no name falls.
Stay tuned.
