You're not going to believe this but I was watching one of your videos with your cat showing up and I said quietly to myself "wish I had a gray cat like that"...a few days later a gray cat showed up almost identical to yours. How about that?! Life is funny sometimes!
wow.. we just bought a home with a 5 acre pond that is in bad shape. We have reached out to Pond Guy and i would agree that their customer service is outstanding. Thank you for confirming that this is the best company to go with. Best of luck
The Notebook scene was a good one! Especially since your handsome husband was just trying to get you rowed across and wasn't aware he was doing anything romantic. Thanks for the giggle.
Mary, this is an appropriate video. We watch you clean your house and now we watch you clean your pond....a consistent message! LOL! (I don’t have a pond, nor clean my house as thoroughly as you do!) but still enjoy your content. (I pretend my house is clean after watching your video!)
I can tell how much you love nature and want to take care of it. I wish everyone in the world felt as you do. God has given us many gifts that we need to take care of.
Oh my goodness, that pond, and the area surrounding it is so beautiful. I can just imagine sitting nearby reading/studying my bible. It seems that when I am out in nature I have such an enhanced sense of God's presence and much greater appreciation for this gorgeous canvas that he created for us to enjoy. Perhaps one day before I go to be with Him I will be blessed with a beautiful pond to enjoy. Thank you for sharing this. Be blessed. xx
My heart always goes out to you when something doesn't go quite as planned like how the water was too fake looking at first or when you thought you had ruined your kitchen counters, as you are such a kind and genuine person that it's hard to see you be disappointed by something. I think that the pond looks amazing - great job!
My last house had a pond with a stone covered bridge over a part of it in the backyard surrounded by willow trees. It was beautiful. We would find old fashioned keys in the pond all the time. I don’t know why they were there but it was neat to find them! The pond was the reason we purchased the home. There was an outdoor fireplace and in the winter friends would come over to ice skate and warm themselves by the fire with hot cocoa. Your video made me miss that!!!
Don't have a pond, don't plan to have a pond -- but this was INTERESTING and I watched the entire thing! hahaha Seriously, grew up on a farm and had several algae-filled ponds that looked like this, remember dad and grandpa having the extension agent come over with advice a few times but they never cleaned up like this! Congrats, and enjoy that water :-)
Great job Mary. I love your pond. Such a lovely area to just relax and be closer to God. The deck looks beautiful. A weather vane would look good on top of the Pavilion roof and some metal flamingos or other large bird statues by the side of pond on the grass. My imagination is going crazy with ideas. xx
When I saw you walking around the pond in a skirt and flip-flops, I thought you must be having an unusually warm November! It wasn't until the end when you were bundled up and stating you started the project in September that it made more sense. The pond cleaned up very nicely! I don't have one myself, but there's one up the road that could sure benefit from a clean-up.
Mary, I just have a small fish pond, the dirty green water drives me crazy! So to make a long story short, I just used 4 water hyacinth and within a few weeks my water was clear! The hyacinth multiplied and bloomed. The hyacinth cost me $8.00. Very easy fix. You should try these. I enjoy your channel so much.
@@daniellewhorton7507 you are 100% correct but I just remove them as they multiply and give them away. Mary's large pond would probably be a big job to control them, but again you are right.

What a transformation! I didn’t realize how large your pond is. That’s a small lake! Sure was worth all the work. I never knew there were additives that could renew an older pond, however I have passed the freaky blue colored ponds people have. 😳😱 The row boat and “The Notebook” reference too cute...wait a minute...where’s my box of Kleenex? 😭 What a lovely place to sit and relax.
Beautiful turnout for your efforts. It looks lovely. I love that pond and your whole area is so lovely. How nice for them to guide you and give instructions through it all. As you mentioned the customer service is wonderful and that is something that is missing more and more, so it is nice to find a good reliable business who knows how much it is needed to keep the customer knowledgeable so the product is used for best results. Very excited for you and it will be fun to see how it works throughout the winter and into spring. Best of luck........knowing you love that pond as well.......it is beautiful!
Hi Mary, it was amazing the results of all your hard work on your pond, I believe it was all worth it.. your property is beautiful. How deep is your pond and could you swim in it. You are an amazing, creative and hard-working lady and I enjoy watching your videos. When does your day begin and when does it end, I’m always amazed at all you accomplish in a single video. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creative nature.
Gorgeous pond. Enjoyed your video. We all learn these steps by trial and error to some degree. I’m going to try the black pond dye next to see how I like that color. They all fade over time. What impressed me most about your pond is how full of water it is. So wish I had a spring fed pond.
That was fun. We went through the same process with our pond and the pond guy. They’re great! I highly recommend the Kasco fountain and LED RGB light kit. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks for sharing the experience.
Wow! The pond is so beautiful. I just love your property, it screams peace and tranquility. I love your videos! You are a talented, sweet lady! God Bless.
Mary, I love your commitment to all your projects!! That in itself is a great Life lesson! The pond looks fantastic! We are blessed with fresh Spring water on our property as well....
This video about your pond makeover is very interesting. I don't have a pond anymore but loved having one years ago. I'm very grateful you decided to include this video in your playlist! You & your family inspire good maintenance of everything...so important & rewarding!
The reflection of the trees in the water is so beautifull, the water is much clearer then before. You are blessed with such a beautyfull place to live Mary. greetings from the Netherlands ♡
My grandparents lived next door and had a pond when I was growing up. Don’t have one now, but found this interesting to watch. Aeration is frequently a factor in helping your pond, especially the fish in it when the temperatures get really hot in the summer. Yours is looking better definitely.
Oh my goodness it’s like night and day difference! Perhaps a Solar Water Spray Fountain? ⛲️ I really enjoyed your version of the “Notebook”, you’re too adorable! ☺️
AwwwMary, that pond looks fantastic what difference. U have a beautiful piece of property. In one part of the video I could see the reflection of the trees on the pond, it was so pretty. I enjoyed this video so much even tho I don’t have a pond it definitely was informative. ♥️😊👍
Oh Mary, you are so sweet. You made me laugh with your reenactment of "The Notebook" I love that. You pond is so beautiful too. Thank you for sharing it with us.
lol! I can see from the comments that many people like me don't have a pond, but still enjoyed your video. I kept thinking, oh I wish she had a boat ! and then there it was. happy ending all way round :) Beautiful improvements !
We put in a pond guy system a few years ago- it has made a huge difference, The water was swampy and black. The surface covered with something like lilly pads called water dollar. Our water is nice and clean now. A healthy light brown and no water dollar.
Pond is looking great!! When we had our pond in OH I refused to used anything that i considered any kind of chemical. I used an aerator & dye. We were told some algae bloom in the spring is good and a sign that your pond is healthy. We raked it off, it was great addition to our compost. Without chemicals I felt better about swimming & fishing in it. Good luck with yours
I love your pond. A friend of mine has two which are divided by a small bit of land. She has a water spray feature in the middle that lights in the evening. Beautiful.
Who would have ever thought I’d be riveted to a video of someone cleaning the muck out of their pond. But I was! You make every video so interesting and educational Mary. If I ever own a pond I will now know what to do!!
Congratulations Mary, this is a great sponsorship that fits so well with your channel. I fully trust that you would only do a sponsorship for something that you truly believed in. I live in a condo in the city but I still really enjoyed this video. Aww, The Notebook :)
My goodness, your pond looks amazing now. Of course the surroundings are gorgeous but I did understand the green stuff on it really took away from the beauty. Now it looks like a postcard...or a book...a notebook? Lol. Enjoy the new boat and the clean pond. So beautiful. God bless.
I grew up with a big pond in my back yard. I'm not sure how my dad took care of it but it always looked well taken care of. We did plenty of fishing in it over the years and had a small canoe we kept anchored to the dock. Your pond is looking beautiful. I know you must enjoy having it. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you. I was thinking our pond may be just a stinky gross thing. There is HOPE! YAY! God bless you. Your pond and property are gorgeous! Love the boat, we should get one, how lovely! I love paddleboarding but too afraid to use them in our muck 😝
You're not going to believe this but I was watching one of your videos with your cat showing up and I said quietly to myself "wish I had a gray cat like that"...a few days later a gray cat showed up almost identical to yours. How about that?! Life is funny sometimes!

Omgosh!!! I was thinking the same thing!!! Lol She could certainly do that!!! 🤗💕💕💕😻
Quick question tho..how often do you have to add this stuff?
The Notebook scene was a good one! Especially since your handsome husband was just trying to get you rowed across and wasn't aware he was doing anything romantic. Thanks for the giggle.

We use these products in our pond in Jasper Alabama. They work very well. Also we just purchased an windmill aeration system from Rural King.
