There’s nothing like the first evening in late Winter or Early Spring when you hear the peepers waking up. Their sound fills the air and you know Spring is almost here. Once “Spring has Sprung” that nighttime sound only gets deeper and more intense… Especially when you have a Pond in your Landscape. I literally fell asleep last night sitting by my Pond 😴
So I made a short video recording of the “Sound of the Season” in my yard. Take a listen 🎧
I sure do enjoy the “Nightlife” 😊
Have a good day and even better night!

Yesterday was so nice. I was outside most of the day, watched the sunset and then made this short little video of my Pond and Waterfall.
Spring is finally here 😊 And I love it! I hope this little clip somehow conveys the feeling of Zen that I get sitting out by my Pond.
Have a Great week!

The beauty of a Garden 🪴 in the Spring and Summer is a given. But this evening as I was walking up the hill I just happened to look up and Boom 💥 The moon 🌙 the bare birch trees, the lights and the sound of the Waterfalls… Even on a night in January, I had to stop and enjoy the beauty. Now, I’m thinking a fire 🔥 is in order …
Have a great evening!

It’s #waterfallwednesday y’all! My Favorite Day of the week! This Fabulous little Pondless
Waterfall was put here as a unique focal point in the forefront of a plant screen… PS: we didn’t want it to look like a hedgerow or “screening plants”… Boom 💥 Not only does it look great 24/7 thanks to the Landscape lighting, it sounds wonderful as well 🎶
We even put a small “seat boulder” there at front left for the “Perfect Picture” 😊
This is a recent Water Feature that I just love ❤️ It really transformed a boring area of the landscape. Now, it’s the Central Focal point of the entire area. At night the lights come on automatically and really throw some magic 💥 PLUS : The sound is beyond compare 😘 | Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio | Jackson, Tennessee
I hope your Waterfall Wednesday goes well! From here, it’s all downhill to the weekend 😉

2020 has been a tough one… As you know we have had to cancel all of our Pond Tours this season, as well as our other yearly events.
Sadly, I regret to inform you that we won’t be able to host this years Moonlight Pond Tour as well. 😥
It’s sad to say, but the Moonlight Pond Tour is postponed until 2021…
But, the Full Harvest Moon will still shine and I hope you will get outside and view it 🌝
October actually has 2 Full Moons this year 🌝 The Full Harvest Moon on October 1st and The Full Hunters Moon on October 31st, which makes it a ‘Blue Moon’ 🌚
I encourage you and that special someone to get outside on your own deck or patio and enjoy the coming Harvest Moon for yourself. Maybe a glass of 🍷 & a little music 🎶
We are hoping and praying 🙏🏻 for a vaccine and an end to this mess… AND, We are making plans for 2021 Pond Tours and are Very hopeful about the future.
Thank you all for your support! Prayers 🙏🏻 for your health and safety as we go into the Fall Season. God Bless America 🇺🇸

Waterfall Wednesday! AKA: Hump Day! Nothing gets me over that hump better than the energy of a Beautiful Waterfall! This one is in the center of a beautiful resort community, nestled along the banks of Kentucky Lake.
I took this picture last night after Midnight. It’s a beautiful Pondless Waterfall Feature at Birdsong Resort and Marina. I just Love Waterfalls ❤️
Waterfall Wednesday is one of my favorite days of the week!
Have a Great One!

Time is flying by this Summer! It’s time for a Monday Morning Zen video once again. I thought I would share my Outdoor Area with you today. I filmed this at night a while back and it’s where I spend my evenings most days. Talk about Zen…
I hope you enjoyed my little walk through of my garden. If I could help with yours give me a call.
Have a great week!

Throwback Thursday & I want to take you on a “Moonlight Pond Tour” from the past. The moonlight tour is my favorite Pond Tour of the season! This video was taken several years ago and it popped up in a Facebook memory.
Stay Tuned! Surprises coming 😊
We hope to hold a Moonlight Pond Tour this Fall! Stay tuned for more info…
We missed out on our Summer Tour this year- BUT… Good News! We are putting together a Fall Pond Tour! I’m thinking ’Evening and Moonlight’! That way you can see the beauty before and after dark. More news to come on this so Stay Tuned!
I Love #Throwbackthursday!
