Goldfish Spring Awakening

When I grew up in Bellmore, our neighbors Helmut and Hildagard Weiss had a fish pond. This is a long time before they became known as water gardens. He was a mason. He built himself. I used to love to see it over the fence.

Then after Tonya, my daughter, and I saw the Karate Kid and Mr. Miyagi's water gardens we decided to put one in ourselves. Here now in its 13th year is our pond and this morning the spring awakening of the goldies.
