News Flash! Water in the Lake!

The Mister went off to exercise via bicycle this morning, and he was gone so long that I began to think he'd gone to the office and stayed. In reality, he pedaled all the way down to Highland Groves to watch the spigot open, as it were. And took lots of pictures to share. The lakes are filled at the north end, and the water travels from the north to the south lake. Here is a shot of the pipe that goes between the two lakes:




Each lake will have a floating fountain, with lights. Here is one of the fountains being displayed by The Water Expert:




There is a rubber "boot" where the water comes in to prevent it from going backwards. Here are the first gallons to come through. The water looks dirty because it's been sitting in a pipe for several weeks waiting to make an entrance:




Now this is what I'm talking about! Gushing, cascading, flowing water, filling the nooks and crannies of the lakes.



It will take two or three days to fill completely; I'll keep you posted with pictures. Well done, Water Expert!
