I'm happy, and amazed, to report that all six fish made it through winter in the new pond. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about the short story is, "last year I dug a new pond so our fish could spend the winter in it rather than in a huge tank inside," the much longer story is here.

We fished all of the time when we were kids and I'm pretty sure we never thought about what the fish did in the winter. There's ice fishing, so what's to think about? But last November, with winter fast approaching for our three foot pond and half dozen fish that's all I could think about...more.
