We finally had some much needed rain! My lawn and gardens certainly appreciated it… Looking at the weeks forecast, there is a chance of rain almost daily, but temps are gonna settle into the 80’s for what appears to be a mostly normal August! It’s a very pleasant morning 🌞 Locust in the background, partly sunny and mild. The birds are singing, my oven is preheating, & I’m drinking coffee ☕️ trying to capture a thought 💭

Last night I started getting serious with my Moonlight Pond Tour preparation… Checking lights, adjusting things, trying a few new things out… Please let me know what you think so far 😊






It was HOT last night though! 92 degrees and super humid at 11pm 😯 When we got through Jo and I were both soaked and exhausted 🥱 It’s a good feeling to me 😊

Great end to a great week! It’s been hot, but it’s about to change…
“Seen from above, the canopy of oak and make and pine is pierced by the pond, which looks back at you like some green eye, knowing and ancient. The air above the pond dives into clefts of coolness, then rises up at the warmth of the margins. Down the path, filigrees of blackflies and mosquitos dance in the heat waves given off by men and women and their domestic fires. Joyous bats dart about.”

We’ve been straitening up around the Ponds getting ready for the coming pond tour on June 25th. I always tell my clients that when I install their Water Feature, they actually get 2 features! The Daytime Water Feature, & the Nighttime one… Me, I LOVE the nightlife!
I can sit by my Nighttime Pond and feed my Koi and listen to the Waterfalls and frogs 🐸 till I fall to sleep 😴 Its so relaxing and hypnotic…

The frogs are in full force right now! It literally sounds like the TN River in my yard 🐸

Enjoy Waterfall Wednesday! And enjoy your Waterfalls! And if you want to find out more about a Waterfall of your own, come by Carters Nursery Pond & Patio, we will show you the ropes! There is also an Awesome Pond Tour coming up on Saturday, June 25th that will introduce you to the wonderful world of Waterfalls 😊

Good afternoon! 🌞 Wow, what a beautiful day 🌼 Spring has Sprung and I am running full speed 🏎 There is no better way for me to slow down and catch my breath than to sit down by my Waterfall with a cup of coffee ☕️ Within minutes I feel like a different man… Heres a short video I made last night of my Waterfall after dark. The Landscape Lighting, along with the Moon made the first day of Spring a beautiful one…
Spring is HERE! Slow down, listen to the Waterfalls! Take the time and smell a few roses 🌹too 😊

Yes! Its #Waterfallwednesday! It’s also the 1st day of Fall! The Autumnal Equinox 🍁 This morning was perfect for the beginning of Fall! Crisp and cool with a high in the low 70’s 😎 Bring it on!
We just had our Moonlight Pond Tour, which always lines up with the Harvest Moon 🌝 and ushers us into Fall each year. So, I thought it was fitting to use a Harvest Moon Waterfall, this one made a big hit on Facebook …

Heres another one 👇🏻

#Waterfallwednesday is always a special day! line it up with the Autumn Equinox… Boom 💥
Enjoy the day! And enjoy the new Season 🍁
