I live in Charleston, South Carolina, US It gets very hot here, especially August, of course. I have a "koolaroo" sun shade sail over the pond to keep the algae down and herons up and away. ;-) I built this pond completely my myself, one spade at a time. This is it's first incarnation, the liner leaked and I had to pull it all up and do over with thicker epdm. I have send mortared in the flagstones. Too many weeds grew up in the sand and gravel. Got sun stroke from the heat twice that summer, but it is worth it. I also built the pergola over the patio with only help to upright the main posts. I'm orginally a Kentucky hillbilly from fine pioneering ancestors, so I guess I'm not afraid of using a little ingenuity and a little sweat. Or maybe I'm just retarded! ;-o
