A new follower....

On my last post, I welcomed some new followers....one of them being Robin Britton. I couldn't seem to find her blog....Well, she has one and she contacted me with the address. She is at Coombe Crafts Miniature Blog... and she makes these awesome dolls! When I saw her work, I immediately remembered how nice her dolls were and that I had become a follower! (Another Senior Moment!) Sorry, Robin!
She makes and sells these wonderful dollhouse dolls, in 1:12 & 1:24 scales. She does wonderful work, so I think you should go and check out her blog. Her dolls are so beautiful. She lives in the UK and does some shows there and she also does some commission work. She is a very talented artist!
So, go for a visit and tell her I sent you!

My Pond....

I love my pond at this time of year.....

It looks beautiful to me. The plants are nice and full, the wildflowers & grasses are lush and it looks so pretty.
I have about 20 goldfishes in there. They are very friendly and come to greet me when I get near. Another view of the fish. I named them all "Goldie", so when I call their name, they all come swimming over.



This is the top of the stream. In the back, there is a whiskey barrel filter, the water comes out the pipe and flows down the stream into the pond. It is then recirculated back up to the filter by a pump that is submerged in the pond. If you look closely in the middle of the picture you can see the water flowing out of the pipe.

I built this pond about 15 years ago and everyone just loves it. It is down near the street, so all the neighbors bring their little ones over to see the fish. The kids love to run across the bridge and to talk to the fish. This pond is a great joy to me and I am so happy that I made it!
