Came across this family relic this evening. This is my grandfather in 1940 serving the Marines. My other grandfather was Air Force, my brother was also a Marine, and my son is active duty curremtly deployed in the Navy. We are Patriots.

I can't unsee this..... :( #space #spacestation #simpsons #italy

Our former foreman joined the Navy in August of 2018. He is currently deployed and we just got word that he has promoted to E5 GM2! Congratulations to Ian Petite on a job well done!

We know how to build amazingly clean and clear ponds

My office today

Had a visitor yesterday, Allan Chadic from Re-Pond Tulsa! Had a great time strapping boulders.

Before we remodeled this pond, the rocks were falling in, the homeowners were using pond dye to control algae, and cleaning the filters was a daily ritual. Their main desire was to have a pond that is as close to zero maintenance as possible. In this design we incorporated some very advanced techniques. An intake bay and 2 wetland filters. There is an enormous amount of water movement here.... 8,000 GPH in the upper wetland, 1500 GPH in the spillway bowl, and 4000 GPH in... the lower wetland. This pond took us 5 days to complete due to weather delays, and there is a total of 22,000 pounds of rock that we used. The clarity on this pond has exceeded our expectations, and we are very pleased with the results. Roughly 50% of our pond construction involves pond remodels. Simply put, pond construction methods improve over the years and customer's needs change. If you have an old pond that needs some updating like this one, please call us for a consultation. Our design center is open daily from 9-5, closed Sundays and major holidays. We are located at 3477 West Devonshire Ave., Hemet, Ca., 92545. 888-713-7771

Progress pictures on a slow moving project that is dear to my heart. I don't want to work so fast that I miss anything on this job.

Treating a pond with phosphate binder. Before and after. Phosphates are a food source for algae and removing the food, kills the algae. ... It's called COMPETITIVE EXCLUSION.

You can't possibly get your patio any closer to your pond than this....

THE... HOWARD #HUGHES #MANSION We did some work a few years back servicing these ponds and these pictures came up in my Facebook Memories. The first picture with the waterfall is next to the house, and the #formal #lily #pond is waaaaay out on the grounds.

Happy Friday everyone! Reply with a current picture and location! I'm on the Colorado River enjoying the dog days of summer!

A few comments from my YouTube channel. My approach is different, but it works!
