The Pond is Leaking--Again

After several weeks of being greeted by a gloriously full pond every morning, I went out early yesterday to find the roots of my water plants exposed. Since the bottom pond had just been re-lined and the top pond's level was just fine, we decided the leak must be in that most common place for loss of volume: the waterfall. So, we shut off the pump and are now waiting for the stones to dry so Gary can clamber into his hip boots and try to block off the water's escape route.

It's always something! But, it helps to remember we would survive even if every drop of water leaked out of that water feature. Besides, what would I fret over if I didn't have the pond?
