Awesome you got that working. If it still gives you problems I just want to point out the kind of things we using the fire service for drafting water out of creeks and rivers: https://www.edarley.com/float-dock-strainer/

It's a floating dock, so you can kinda just send it out there with your suction hard sleeve and have it float on the surface.

Tamaracks are one of the prettiest conifers in my opinion. Their needles grow in spurs off of the limbs and they're the only local conifer species that loses its needles every fall. Before the needles fall off they turn into a very nice strong yellow, giving some fantastic contrast against the other evergreens.



Those look amazing. I've seen them before and didn't know what they were called.

That place is going to be awesome when all of those trees start taking off.

And the dandelions are growing fiercely now. Neighbors yard **may** be contributing to our weed issues.



Nothing some good ol' chemicals can't help with. Hopefully strengthening the lawn will mean it can battle the weeds a little better. This was just a lawn fertilizer, will see if I need to get a broadleaf weed killer, but hopefully making the lawn



With a dandelion factory next door you're going to need spring and fall 2,4-D applications to keep your yard under any kind of control. Offer to spray the neighbors property too.

Best time for the first one would be after the first frost of the year this fall. Use something like Surge if you can get it, generic 2,4-D with a surfactant if you can't.

E: I've got one of these and it rules: https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200645939_200645939
