OUR FIRST POND BUILD First of 5 Ponds Pt. 1

This is a simple beginning compared to the more labor intensive ponds that I’m constructing. Hopefully y’all enjoy these videos as I shape the land and continue my recovery after surgery.

Hey Group,
Recovery has gone better than hoped for. I’m steadily gaining muscle as my body begins to adjust and find its balance once more. Going to make a few of these operator vids as they don’t overwhelm my diminished stamina. Survival videos should come out in the coming weeks as well. Hope y’all enjoy this simple beginning to the ponds project. Take care and...
Until Next Time,
Bob Hansler

Makes me smile seeing you working again. I hope that means your recovery has been steadily improving. Can't wait to see more and more content. Keep moving forward!

Hey Bob glad to see you doing well. You've taught me a thing or two about survival, I've been in operator for 30 years and I've dug a lot of ponds and lakes. For what it's worth I think you should probably build your slopes as you go, stockpiling your topsoil to put back on them later. I'm in your area from time to time if you need some help. FYI just used your tanning method on a snake skin. Thanks for all you do

Old faithful Huck 😊. Good to see you old friend

[mdwdirect]

I didn’t realize your vision had improved enough to do any of this.
Thank you God!

[MiroGaming]

Great to see you back at it Bob. Been enjoying your videos for years. Sending love your way from Canada.

Be sure to leave your bucket dropped to the ground when it's at rest, it's less stress on the machine and safer. You don't want the bucket to slip down while Huck is under it.

When Huck hopped on up there and took his spot, wow...beautiful!! Hahaha 🤣👊🏻

Ya know… watching your videos reminds me of the perspective of a child. What I mean to say is when I watched my dad performing any number of farm tasks I feel like I was looking at him from the perspective of your camera lens. In the case of machinery I didn’t watch to learn to operate machinery I watched to learn the process. Ultimately what I am trying to say is that a video like this is valuable. It’s valuable to people who want to understand the process. It may not be as valuable to people who just wanna be entertained. Ultimately you’re a teacher. Kind of seems like that’s your calling.

Bob, I am so happy to see you back at it! To see that smile on your face, and that pep in your step! I am very excited for the future! Happy days!

[anklebracelet]

Anything you do is worth my attention. So happy to see you doing what you want & love to do. You're an inspiration to me, thanks.

[Enigma-Sapiens]

Pond building vids are great! I bet lots of us have never seen a pond being built, so we will be able to learn as we watch you go about it. Pretty much put up whatever you wish and we will watch it!

[bigunone]

It was good to hear you chuckling again!
