What's in a Name

In the interest of keeping a sort of stability in our fish pond, my mom and I frequent the local fish pond store and keep our pond stocked at 13. We have cats in our neighborhood. And raccoons. And osprey. And cranes. And even though we cover our pond with deer netting, even that's not always enough to keep tenacious critters away. So every now and then we go on down to the pond store and get a brand new fish. This is like, the highlight of my summer, every year. Being in a locale surrounded by hundreds of beautiful, multi-colored fish? Sign me up!



Yes, I ALWAYS come home this excited. I have a fantastic record for naming things.
