It's been over twenty years since we had repairs made on our dam, and this year a couple of bad spots developed. We had a local contractor come in to dig out the soft spots, and refill them a few days ago. Anyone who tells you that trees are slow growing has never had a pond dam. I haven't worked on it for a few too many years, and I have to go into lumberjack mode this fall to clear the dam again. Oh well, we can use the firewood. I dropped a sycamore that was fourteen inches diameter at breast height with fifteen growth rings so the backhoe could work on one spot. These things are overtaking me!
