I live on a retention pond (I mean ocean!) in Swimdawg North and we have two fountains in our pond to move the water. I did call TV and suggested a fountain for the pond at "Swimdawg South" and they were adamant that no fountains would ever be installed. Wow!

BTW, there is no odor coming from the pond....and I have never seen a "blind mosquito".....but those ducks do quack and the water fowl are so much fun to watch!
