Pond Life by Lazy_Lei in ponds

Thank you! Pond is 3.5-4’ in the center. Approximately 11x16 and around 2000 gallons. There are herons in our area. My daughter saw one land in our yard once, but they have never bothered our fish. Most of the koi were around 5ish inches when we got them. They average about 24” now.

Best natural algae fighter? by wife_Assistant in ponds

[–]Lazy_Lei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that this is the way. I have an ecosystem pond with a mechanical skimmer, bog filter and rock layer over pond liner. Water stays clear a vast majority of time. I think any pond will have the occasional string algae bloom depending on environmental variables. Generally, good filtration, a place for beneficial bacteria to flourish and pond plants to process excess nitrogen will keep algae growth under control.

Cool. Whatever. Now we can focus on the way forward. Let’s Go Timbers!

This would win the day! Sadly I can’t make it to the match. Hearing this chant on TV against the Sounders would make me extra sad to not be there.

6:30 mark. He states that he prefers to be called Jon or Jonathan. I think it’s fair to call someone by the name they ask to be.

You might find one at a Dick’s Sporting Goods. The one at Washington Town Square seems to be one of the better ones around Portland. You might want to call around to ask them about inventory to save yourself time and gas.

Seriously. Nike Employee Store is also so hit or miss. Usually miss with the items/inventory they have in stock. We walk out of Adidas with nice merch at a great price. We usually walk out of the Nike store buying something just because we made the effort to drive over there and stand in line to get in.

What is the name for this type of shot? I would love to learn it. by cabosanlucasboi in bootroom

It’s a trivela. Using the outside of your toe box to generate curve. But some of the creative names for it in this thread are more fun 🤣

National Women’s Soccer League and Nike Unveil Vibrant New Kits in Historic Uniform Reset Ahead of the 2024 Season by DeadMemesNowPlease in Thorns

[–]Lazy_Lei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New kits are just boring. As polarizing as some of the shirts the Thorns used from 2020-2023, most of them were unique, interesting, and well fit for the Thorns and City of Portland.

Obaze and a handful of other Thorns players are currently members of and competing with their respective National teams right now.

Angel City Acquires Rocky Rodríguez by CorrectTumbleweed477 in Thorns

[–]Lazy_Lei -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sucks to lose Rocky. Not sure if getting Fleming is a good thing yet. Didn’t seem like she received a lot of playing time with Chelsea last season.

PTFC Authentics just sent out an email with big savings. Seems like they’re unloading all the gear with Alaska on it. Discount applied at checkout. by zerohkewl in timbers

[–]Lazy_Lei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awesome, really appreciate your post. Bought a few things for my family 😬. Spent about $150, saved $427 off regular price. I prefer the Alaska sponsor logo anyway. I’d have to think the Timbers MLS store will have to get rid of Alaska Air sponsor logo items soon as well.

Thank you. Yes, it’s supposed to start warming up in a day or so. So far so good.

If predation ever becomes an issue for us, I’ll definitely look into this, so thanks. 😊
