You do not need a waterline. I just filled it up with the hose. It took about 1/2 hour.

I only emptied mine once in 8 years. I got a siphone that you use for the fish tank, put the end that drained in the rose garden (boy those roses loved it bloomed like crazy).

I buy the feeder goldfish 20 for 2.00 and the snails keep my water pretty clean. I have waterlilies, iris growing in the pond.


Do what you can where you are with what you have.

I found another good deal today,,I won't say how much they were because someone is getting these sent to them,, notme and I sent off a few boxes today, sooo you'll have to wait and see,, neenee
these 3 solar butterflys change colors,, I have them on the fence the clematis are climbing on,, I didn't know they changed colors untill a while ago I went out and looked to see if I had them out long enough to charge and start up,, , I thought One was green, one red and one Blue,, Nice surprise they alternate,,! I don't know IF I'll leave all three on the fence,, ,,
Loz,, I definitely am starting to look like a landing strip here in the back yard,, I can't resist the solar lights either!! lol lol

Thanks Jiffy and Toposh

Tina I saw a set of the hummingbirds,, But They weren't
shaped or defined clearing as a hummingbird and these were not returnable so I didn't take a chance on them,, I bet the dragonflys look cool

From a distance they all look alike with the lights changing colors. I have mine up on the hill to catch as much sunlight as possible. I don't have a lot of light right around my house. And i live on the north side of a hill with an early sunset thing going on. I do need new batteries in them. Two are not working any more. In my spare time with my spare funds and spare energy, I will get that done.

Diane, are you just making this up????? How can you have such good sales and I don't. Life just isn't fair, or as we really say in Monroe, NC "life just ain't fair." I only know of one pool supply place and their stuff is very very expensive. Maybe Target has stuff like that. It's so pretty.

I'll fly my little plane down and visit you since you have a place for me to land.

Diane - those are very similar to the 3 I have out front in my driveway garden - only I have 2 butterflies and 1 dragonfly. I just love them too - I'm constantly turning around in my chair here to get a glimpse of them!

Diane those are very pretty you sure got a deal... thumbup


Now I know why the news last night said AA pilots reported strange light in south GP and one pilot said he thought he was at DFW and tried to land but was " a bunch of little people one with only one hand) waved off. They are undergoing psychological test today. Maybe someone needs to tell the FAA it was only your yard lights they were seeing. neenee lol
