I can deal with crowds, just not the ones who have absolutely no consideration for the people around them. Sidewalks need lanes like highways have. Problem is, those same tourists would lollygag in the "fast walk" lane just like they do in the FUCKING PASSING LANE
Yeah my dad put a fence up at both houses too. The pic of his pond I shared was about 8 months after I built it and he got all the plant life and rocks all set up. We actually turned an old truck into a temporary pond for the plants and fish while I went crazy with a backhoe
Oh when it comes to camping, I don't fuck around. We are happy, comfy, and having a blast.
Even if we get rained out and I have to tow two cars out of the mud and we end up cramming like 8 people into one hotel room.
He lives on the edge of a city now and when we moved all of his pond stuff from his old house, the frogs could not be retrieved. Plus now he has to keep a net over the pond when he's not outside entertaining because of feral cats and blue herring trying to nab the $3,000 worth of Japanese Koi.
Still worth it.
Also look at this fat fuck..
