HA!! Lighting the surface of the water would be too much fun. Too bad there is a burn ban. :(

It is dry--I think the kerosene is dried up too. It was a small amount--but BIG stench. I was afraid I would have to throw it out. Good news that I can probably just lather, rinse, repeat.

On another note: I need to get this pond dug. Anyone have a bobcat (or large shovel )or something in the Elgin area? I actually want to make the pond bigger than the preformed part and use liner over both. That way, if my dogs dig a hole in the liner, the preformed will keep everybody alive. (Bad experience with this before). What would you charge to help me?

Thanks, guys!!
