...It all began in the spring of 2002. Before a pond or stream could be built,
I wanted to correct a house footing drainage system,
and the driveway had to be graded so that the slope was away from the house.
Yeah, I know. It is hard to imagine that someone would build a driveway that
sloped into the house causing a large water problem!
So the drainage and driveway got fixed - more on that later!
While that was being done I drew the plans for the stream and ponds.
