Four more pallets of inventory now set inside the store. That makes a total of 12. What a mess. Now the fun begins. Where will I put all of it? Yesterday my son and I worked for over an hour to upright the leaning structure that protects the fish system. Three feet of snow is a lot of weight. We had to use ropes and a come-a-long to get it back to it's original position. What a pain! Only 5 weeks until opening day. So much to do.

Snowapolis
Today we got 24" of snow, and it's still coming down. I will have to check the greenhouses and make sure they are okay. The good news is, I always put center supports inside for just such an occasion. So it should be fine. The fish are all snug under the ice, so they don't even realize it's happening. It might be darker under the ice now, but they don't care. I love the snow, but can't wait for Spring to arrive!

WELCOME
Welcome to my blog. I will be keeping posts of the many things we do here at Gettysburg Water Gardens: keep up with opening day, hours of operation, our live web cams, our on-line store and much much more. Come watch the fish spawn, feed, or just swim around. You might even see a frog here or there if you watch closely. I look forward to spreading the joy of water gardening to all who watch this blog.
