Jump down, turn around, and its #waterfallwednesday once again… I don’t know about you, but 2021 has flown by ✈️ Thank goodness for Waterfalls 😊 They slow things down a bit… They help you relax and forget about things. Here is a beautiful Waterfall i posted a while back and I promised a completed picture when i had one. Well here ya’ go – A beautiful waterfall and stream complete with some beautiful plants and pine straw mulch. I hope you like it😊
This one changed this entire backyard! no more road noise! No more blank/boring hillside! Now they are enjoying the sight and sound of flowing water. Groups of birds fly in to bathe and eat. Even deer have dropped by to check things out. At night when the lights kick on… Show Stopper folks! 💥
Y’all enjoy this beautiful day! From here I can almost see the weekend!!!
#waterfallwednesday!

Now, all we lack is ”finishing up” 😊

Enjoy your #waterfallwednesday!

Monday mornings are a little different… A new week starts now. Time to make the doughnuts… Are you ready? Being mentally prepared is the key 🔐 It helps me to relax and focus to listen to the sound of flowing water 🌊 Check this video out and see what you think.
Did you listen? Do you see what I mean? Its a scientific fact, that being around moving, flowing water, ie; Waterfalls 🌊 makes your heart rate drop, it lowers blood pressure, it helps you to breath easier and you get an almost immediate feeling of relaxation. I for one can attest to all these things, because I visit mine daily 😊
Its Monday! Get out there and have a Great week!

I told my wife that a minute ago and grinned 😊 Mmmm Hmmmm… ”Lets hear it, whats a burble”? Well well I said, let me lay this on ya’ real quick…
Here’s the definition of Burble : Verb ;
“To burble is to move with a rippling flow, the way water bubbles down the side of a small garden waterfall. A stream burbles as it travels along its bed, bubbling over rocks and branches. The verb burble captures both the movement of the water and the sound it makes as it moves.”
~ definition from vocabulary.com
If you just watched and listened to this :30 second video, you know what a Burble sounds like 😊 This Saturday night, during the Moonlight Pond Tour, theres gonna be ”A WHOLE LOTTA BURBLING GOING ON” 💥
There will be LIVE Music at the Nursery Saturday Night during the Pond Tour! AND – I might even perform my brand new ditty ”Whole Lotta Burbling Goin On” 💥

This popped up as a Facebook Memory today and it’s very timely in more ways than one!
My friend and fellow guitar 🎸 picker Willi X Evans posted this on Facebook 7 years ago and it popped up as a memory this morning! Perfect timing in more ways than 1! Not only is it pickling season, it’s Moonlight Pond Tour 🌝 season as well! And Willi has played the music at more Pond Tours than any other band or musician! 💥 Come see Willi X – Live! at Carters Nursery Saturday, September 18th. For our Annual
- Moonlight Pond Tour!
Here’s the Video 👇🏻
By the way, here’s Willi’s recipe for the Pickled Peppers 🌶
So here goes –
INGREDIENTS
Makes 4 — 8 ounce jars
4 8 ounce mason or ball jars with lids and seals
Approximately15 jalapeno peppers sliced
Approximately 8 Cayenne peppers sliced
2 Cups white vinegar
1 Cup water
1 tsp pickling or Kosher salt
4 Cloves of garlic
INSTRUCTIONS
Sterlize jars and lids by placing them carefully in a pot of boiling water for at least 15 minutes
Use tongs to remove jars and lids and place on a clean towel to dry
Prepare peppers by slicing them or piercing them
Make the brine by combining the vinegar, water and salt to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes
Meanwhile place the peppers in each of the 4 jars filling them up and place one clove of garlic in each
Pour brine over peppers in each jar (should be about 1/2 cup per jar)
Secure lids tightly on each jar
Bring water to boil in sterilizing pot again and submerge the 4 jars in pot — covering jars about 1/2 way
Let boil for about 30 minutes
Carefully remove jars from water with tongs and set to cool
As jars cool, listen for the lids to snap indicating a secure seal — if jar doesn’t seal, store in refrigerator
Wait a least a week before opening properly sealed jar and refrigerate after opening”
Have a great #Throwbackthursday!

We went to visit a client yesterday that I haven’t seen in years, always something I look forward to. As with most folks, the Pond is around back, which is where we came in… Wow 🤩 I just love seeing projects from years back after they have matured and the plants have all grown in. One word – Beautiful! This one is perfect for #waterfallwednesday
Such a nice sound and oh so beautiful! This Waterfall has been bringing joy for many years now and will for many more to come. Don’t you just Love #waterfallwednesday?!
Have a great “Humpday”! It’s all downhill from here 😊

Can you believe how fast this Summer is passing by… It’s already Waterfall Wednesday!
Todays Waterfall goes back a ways… We first built this Waterfall around 27 years ago 🤩
Recently we did a little “Facelift Work” on it and we all think it turned out great 👍🏻
They still have most of the original Koi that we put in the pond all those years ago 🤩 And boy have they grown!
#Waterfallwednesday is always a great day! Especially when you looking back at something you did so long ago 😊
Have a Great Day!
PS: I can almost see the weekend from here…
