OUR POND






Our Pond.
We started creating the pond in 2003. The backyard was just dirt. We made a water feature with a stream. Then we wanted fish. We did some reading on ponds and we created this pond. We have ran into many problems along the way. I really enjoy the fish and sitting besides the pond. These pictures were taken Oct. 2008

Taylor Creek, South Lake Tahoe, CA. USA

At Taylor Creek Visitor Center in October, you can see the spawning run of the Kokanee Salmon in Taylor Creek. The visitor center is located off HWY 89, just a few miles after the Y, where HWY 50 & 89 split off in South Lake Tahoe. You can reach the Stream Profile Chamber by following the trail and the information signs. There you can see inside part of Taylor Creek. We really enjoyed this trip.
