New project

Hi all. It's been a while since I have talked to everyone, been busy. Brookside of Idaho is just about finished with our latest pond project. Brookside of Idaho has been working on a pond in the Eagle area for the past 3 weeks. This pond is approximately 25 x 40 with 2 water falls, a 3 rivers flag stone patio and fire pit with a gravel beach area. This has been a very fun project and the home owners are excited and ready to use the patio and fire pit for entertainment. The owners do have grandchildren and Brookside of Idaho has designed the gravel beach area for walk-in access into the pond. The deepest area of the pond is about 3 feet and the children will be able to wade in the pond and enjoy the water, plants and fish. The home owners will be able to access the pond for the plant maintenance and also be able to enjoy more than just watching the pond. The water falls are designed with boulders weighing in the area of 1000 to 1500 pounds adding a very dramatic look the the water moving over and through the rock to the pond. The sound of the falls is wonderful, not so loud that you can't have a conversation but loud enough to be enjoyed. The pond has a couple of rocks at the edge that a person could set and get their feet wet if they want. Brookside of Idaho will be posting pictures for the entire construction after the project is completed. Brookside of Idaho would like to thank the owners for their hospitality through out the construction. You have been great.
