A few years ago I thought it would be nice to have a pond/pool with a waterfall to drown out traffic noise and cool the yard off of those hot steamy days, Enter the Val Morons who said they could do the project in about six weeks, Well after a year it reached the point it could hold water, but it looks like it going to take two years before they can get the concrete right, as a result of their inability to get it done, the waterfall and landscaping have been on hold, so heading in to the third summer we'll see if anyone can finish the job the Val Morons couldn't,  Before you ever consider using them have a look below at their blunders.   Looks like this may now be on Manning shoulders to get it finished with the waterfall flowing and the and the trees planted.  He's off to a good start with the yard raised and draining proper.
