Once set up and going the pond is very little work. 

 

Well, except for the grading, sanding, rocking, more sanding, fencing, potting, that came before building the pond... LOL.

I already have enough time consuming hobbies... 

Please no one alert mrsskibumz to this thread...     Looks lovely... and like a lot of work...

congrats on your new 23 excellent color choice

when did you take delivery of this beauty??

First, thanks for that. I had been coveting the grill of my buddy in Florida (FireMonkey) for a long time, ever since first eating food cooked on it in perhaps 2010 or so.   

When this one came up during Project Smoke (and it was my model and color) I joked with Dennis on FaBo that it should be more expensive because Steven Raichlen had cooked on it...  One thing led to another and before I knew it he had my credit card info... LoL.  

It came here directly from the set of Season 3....  Late March of 2017 

Edit to add:  I simply had never posted anything here.  My wife had picked up a used Akorn for me for $100 at a garage sale in 2015 for me to use and see if I even LIKED Kamado style cooking.  The skills I picked up there (after moving from a Weber kettle) transferred pretty seamlessly to the KK...

That grill (the 23" from the link in the original post) now lives in Columbia, MO...  And that's the first recipie I cooked on it here...
