today I weighed down the HDPE culvert pipe that is the pond drain line with concrete. I ended up just pouring concrete onto the pipe to envelope it and then put unopened sacks of concrete on top of that... and some stones. Now I can turn the solar pump back on and let it run again. No pictures.... it's horrible looking anyway. but it'll hold that pipe down flat on the bottom so it won't get air locked. As the pond fills up, I'll eventualy trim that pipe to be the final water level. Side note... that mallionus dog that wandered up a few months ago... my companion. He was right there with me today. I saw a skink and tried to sic him on it... I kept pointing at it and he kept putting his head under my hand to get petted. I finally gave up trying to show it to him. Next thing I know he's sticking his head inside a 5 gallon bucket and slinging it straight up into the air.
