Stop 4 - S6 Frank
There are a total of five ponds here, from 6000 gallons down to 350, with paths leading around and through them all.  Mr. Allcorn has been having a problem with heron, lately, and has added fencing in an effort to protect his koi.  The area is populated by many beautiful plants, birdhouses and other artistic touches. He invites you to visit and follow his blog for more information.
Stop 5 - S5 Jeannie and Steve
Jeannie is the current president of the Austin Pond Society and you can tell she knows a thing or two about ponds!  The gentleman in the APS shirt kindly took a few moments to tell us a little pond keeping, stating that he knew we visitors from San Antonio were a little slower than most. (He was almost pushed into the pond.)  :D  They call their largest, and possibly still growing pond, Lake Monfrini!
