During these "dog days" of summer...Especially here in the hot and humid Florida...This banner really does have a wonderful 'cooling effect'! Love that!

I have to agree with everyone ... exceptional, cooling, and mesmerizingly beautiful. Thanks for a wonderful banner to watch this next day go by with - imagining a moment at the side of the pond.

Oohhh! Waterfall?!

Do you have a picture to post of the full pond, or have I missed it elsewhere? Would love to see.

Thanks! I really Love It! It is one of the Best things I have ever done for our yard! It is the second one we have done. Going bigger! I have always heard you build 3 before you have the size you really want. I believe that to be true as I would Love to make this one larger. The only down side to that is having to buy a new liner, those things aren't cheep!
