Even with a good clay base it can take 2 to 3 years to seal up and hold water. Fall rain time is the best time to make a first fill. That way you have rain to help saturate the surrounding landscape, and cooler weather to slow down evaporation. Don't be discouraged, that ground has been absolutely parched for years. You will make it a beautiful and spectacular pond!❤❤
You have to 'puddle' it. they used to run cattle in a pond or lake with a small amount of water in it so that they would work the clay until it formed a seal.
I live where there are a lot of deer & I must say I've never heard one do that. Marge was like, "Was it something I said? Do I stink? Did you see a ghost? What's your deal?" 😂 The waterfall feature is going to be absolutely amazingly peaceful when you're all done & the pond is full of water. Love it! ❤
I have had a doe with young (older than a fawn- not a yearling yet) make similar sound and stamp her foot at me when I'm in the park too late. "Okay, Mom I know the park belong to wildlife after dusk, but you're standing next my car."
Great idea with the Basin and the black plastic. Might be a good idea to run the black plastic all the way to the bottom. ITS GOING TO BE BEAUTIFUL. 😁😁😁💕💕💕🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
The property is really starting to incorporate your personality and dreams . Truly is a magical place ! Beautiful Bea, your smile lights up the world, keep on spreading your magic
Bee, I'm loving your hair! You are just so cute! The Pond looks amazing and I love Theos water feature! So exciting to hear that dear bark! I didn't know they could do that! Thank you so much for sharing your lives with the world! You are loved! ❤
I’m so excited for you both. It’s going to be gorgeous! I LOL’d when B said “I was right!” See if they (our hubbies) would just listen to us they’d be so much better off! 😂😂😂 💜💜 I’m teasing of course. You two are amazing together. Have come to adore you both. Keep up the great work. Love, hugs, and blessings ~Lisa
The pond will be amazing. Apple trees always drop some of the crop, it allows them to put more energy into making the remaining apples bigger and better
Oh my goodness. I have deer come near my house all the time and I have never ever heard one bark like that. Wow. So much wild life by your place, it is amazing.
It must be a different kind of deer than what I have on my little island in the puget sound of Washington state. They are having a second round of fawns. Yesterday it was twins with mom and an older young deer. Let me get within 3-4 feet of them. I see deer every day here. Smell a skunk every now and then and 2 kinds of squirrels. Loads of birds in the 300 ft tall ever greens here. Beautiful. I did see two male deer fighting once here around a group of deer.
Well done Theo, love watching you & the way your brain works is amazing. Love the basin & shelf you concocted for the pond. Pure genius. Cant wait to see the end result & watch you sit back on your bench & enjoy the fruits of your labor & who needs a gym when you can throw rocks like Bee. Well done.
B so nice to see you smiling all the time I watched you guys since the early day so glad life being bit kinder to u these days you go girl your a imsperation to others
Bee you make things so exciting and I love seeing the beauty of your Miracle Mountain through your eyes! Your zest for life is so contagious! Love ya! PS, you do work hard! No sitting on the job for you!
Brilliant. The placing of the stones, the vision of a plan coming together and the wild life, very special. Good work guys. Take care, keep safe. 💕 Dorset, UK
I never ever knew that dear barked, talk about learning something new every day. Loved the fountain and the sound of the water. So happy to see things working out for you both and to see all of your hard work paying off.
Love and enjoy your videos. May the lord bless and protect Bea and Theo working on Miracle Mountain pond and working on the pond and digging the trench
Tremendous video!! Loving seeing the pond come together. Jealous of you abundent Clay. We had to use brothers dicarded Clay. It worked. After we got to this stage of our pond, hubby would go out EVERY evening and with his irrigation boots on would tramp around the bottom, up to the water line. Because the next day the pond would be up a couple new inches. Long tedious effort. But did eventually seal and we had a full pond. YES.
That is brilliant, my friend. You are very imaginary coming to your work and it shows everything you do is Gran just like you’ve been doing it for thousands of years.
Great job you too. It was awesome seeing Bee working just as hard as you Theo. She look like she was enjoying it as well. Keep up the great Content love you guys ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've been watching 2 vlogs building ponds. George's Happy Goose Family and you guys. If you haven't seen Bob and his critters it is a treat. His pond is pretty and he built a dock.
Looking to visit Portugal in a month or so to check out possible retirement there. Just need a suitable place and a few acres of land, so going to travel around the central area to see what is available. Don't need or want anything as large and awesome as your property. Fingers crossed that we find our dream plot.
Oh gosh that deer never heard that before.but what a real treat to see all those animals so near to your house and beyond.the pond is coming along great.at the rate your going it wont be long untill your taking a dip in it and why not it will be much deserved.take care .🐱🐈😼
I was in the woods sitting and a dear quietly came up behind me , when it barked I jumped and then it jumped. Too funny, not a noise I thought they would make.
How exciting how the pond with water feature is coming along! It is CERTAIN to bring wild life to Miracle Mountain and bring joy and ☮️ peace as well! ❤️🇺🇸😎
What an excellent video some really hard work,some revelation,some dreaming and you animals are a riot Must be happy to be eating apples after the forest fires.Go easy you too but it does make one giddy to see you tackle and succeed on every vision.Great examples for us weiners !
Gosh I would lay pond fabric down all inside to keep the water from seeping out! Or I think there is another clay pellet system you can lay?? Looking good!!! I adore the waterfall❤
Oh goodness, Theo was so right! That's going to be a lovely feature. Yeah, one more layer to get it out farther from the end. And Bea! Lookit you!!! Your healed and growing stronger every day. That deer sound is so bizarre. It really does sound like a large dog. Wow. You made a great decision to buy this property and I'm glad you did - what fabulous content!!!!!
The pond is going to be beautiful, but maybe the pipe running the water into the pond you could clad in something to make it disappear or look more natural, paint or wrap in clay or plaster
Theo And B you both work together so well we surely love to watch you both and we wish we could come out there and see all of you done out there when it’s all done watching you from Southern Alberta Canada throughout this whole journey of yours and it made me so envied of you guys. Wish I could’ve done that kind of stuff in my younger days now I’m 66 years old and trying to renovate our 14 x 72 trailer in a trader park here, and not getting too far ahead because it’s hard on me now for my age is getting to me. God bless you both and we love you both dearly.
I've heard the white tailed deer here in the US bark like that too. They also do a snort. I was working in the vegetable garden at my Dad's this summer and heard a snort and turned to see a white tailed deer standing not 6 ft from me and another 6 ft beyond that. I guess that they were watching me tend their snack patch.

Sorry, but with the title, we were sort of on the edge of our seat when you were moving the basin. But what was the fail and what was plan B?
Even with a good clay base it can take 2 to 3 years to seal up and hold water. Fall rain time is the best time to make a first fill. That way you have rain to help saturate the surrounding landscape, and cooler weather to slow down evaporation. Don't be discouraged, that ground has been absolutely parched for years. You will make it a beautiful and spectacular pond!❤❤
Thanks!! I'm 73 and have never known deer barked like that!!
Trees will shed fruit when there is insufficient water for its life system. I love to watch your progress so heart warming, well done.
You have to 'puddle' it. they used to run cattle in a pond or lake with a small amount of water in it so that they would work the clay until it formed a seal.
You continue to amaze me with how healthy you look Bea!
Stocked fish , frogs and turtles . A menegerie of animals. How cool is that❤. Harriet and Jim
Both looking fabulously fit and well!
Ok, seriously?! Your deer bark??? And Marge’s horns are looking marvelous!!!
I live where there are a lot of deer & I must say I've never heard one do that. Marge was like, "Was it something I said? Do I stink? Did you see a ghost? What's your deal?" 😂 The waterfall feature is going to be absolutely amazingly peaceful when you're all done & the pond is full of water. Love it! ❤
I have had a doe with young (older than a fawn- not a yearling yet) make similar sound and stamp her foot at me when I'm in the park too late. "Okay, Mom I know the park belong to wildlife after dusk, but you're standing next my car."
LOL...I loved the clip of the Goat and the deer.
The sound of water at the pond is brilliant.
Great idea with the Basin and the black plastic. Might be a good idea to run the black plastic all the way to the bottom. ITS GOING TO BE BEAUTIFUL. 😁😁😁💕💕💕🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
The water fountain is fantastic
It's such a fantastic Idea to put that stone basin in!! love it! it will not only look great but also provide extra oxygen for the fish!
The property is really starting to incorporate your personality and dreams . Truly is a magical place ! Beautiful Bea, your smile lights up the world, keep on spreading your magic
Well done bee you will soon be driving that digger,that is if you can get Theo off it 😂😂
Bee, I'm loving your hair! You are just so cute! The Pond looks amazing and I love Theos water feature! So exciting to hear that dear bark! I didn't know they could do that! Thank you so much for sharing your lives with the world! You are loved! ❤

So happy for both 👫 of you to have this land 🦌to love. Clever water 💦 feature
The pond will be amazing.
Apple trees always drop some of the crop, it allows them to put more energy into making the remaining apples bigger and better
That waterfall feature is brilliant
Great pond progress. The water set up is genius!🙂👍🇨🇦
Theo that is brilliant. What a great job you two. Once the grasses take over, maybe some wild orchids and lily’s, it’s gonna be lovely
Like the deer video. The pond is coming together nicely.
Oh my goodness. I have deer come near my house all the time and I have never ever heard one bark like that. Wow. So much wild life by your place, it is amazing.
It sounds just like a dog doesn’t it!
It must be a different kind of deer than what I have on my little island in the puget sound of Washington state. They are having a second round of fawns.

Loads of birds in the 300 ft tall ever greens here. Beautiful. I did see two male deer fighting once here around a group of deer.
Deer have been known to attack dogs and people. They rear up on hind legs and hit out with front legs.
It is amazing what love can do. The whole place is looking so lovely! been watching for years . big hugs congrats!!
Amazing water basin using it as a waterfall . Ingenious idea. looking great too.
Well done Theo, love watching you & the way your brain works is amazing. Love the basin & shelf you concocted for the pond. Pure genius. Cant wait to see the end result & watch you sit back on your bench & enjoy the fruits of your labor & who needs a gym when you can throw rocks like Bee. Well done.
My Pop always used to say, If at first you don't succeed, try, try again ❤
B so nice to see you smiling all the time I watched you guys since the early day so glad life being bit kinder to u these days you go girl your a imsperation to others
Bee you make things so exciting and I love seeing the beauty of your Miracle Mountain through your eyes! Your zest for life is so contagious! Love ya! PS, you do work hard! No sitting on the job for you!
I love the water feature!!! 🎉💖
Haven’t watched in a few months, looking slim and well Theo my friend! Top job as always
Love that you are trusting each other with your large equipment!
Pond is looking awesome
Bea slow down the hard work! Give yourself the love ! you deserve to heal completely.
Thanks for sharing ur life with us many blessings from North Texas ❤
Always the best thing in your channel is watching Theo do a project with such enthusiasm. This pond will be a great asset for local wildlife.
Hi, Bee and Theo. The pond is coming into fruition… well done❤❤
I love the barking deer, Bee❤️
New pond progress. Black plastic needs a gravel bed. Put some rocks, gravel and cement to enclose the sink and flagstone. Less rain erosion.
What ever you do together, you succeed. As a couple you are brilliant, absolutely brilliant!👍❤️🙏❤️
Brilliant. The placing of the stones, the vision of a plan coming together and the wild life, very special. Good work guys. Take care, keep safe. 💕 Dorset, UK
Well you can always lean something new. DEER BARK! I never would have guessed if I hadn't heard it myself.
Fabulous work. Amazing what you've achieved. We'll done!
You are both looking great! congratulations on choosing yourselves first!
I came to say the same thing. Both looking so healthy and happy :D Thoroughly deserved
I never ever knew that dear barked, talk about learning something new every day. Loved the fountain and the sound of the water. So happy to see things working out for you both and to see all of your hard work paying off.
OMG the barking deer
Amazing isn’t it!
Love and enjoy your videos. May the lord bless and protect Bea and Theo working on Miracle Mountain pond and working on the pond and digging the trench
Now you've dug the pond be sure to research sealing the pond. Many people use pigs to seal a pond. They naturally knead the ground.
Tremendous video!! Loving seeing the pond come together. Jealous of you abundent Clay. We had to use brothers dicarded Clay. It worked. After we got to this stage of our pond, hubby would go out EVERY evening and with his irrigation boots on would tramp around the bottom, up to the water line. Because the next day the pond would be up a couple new inches. Long tedious effort. But did eventually seal and we had a full pond. YES.
With your plan to add structure, consider securing a tree with branches still attaches for a natural feel.
I just love the water feature!
The stone basin is very beautiful, it looks very natural. I hope the animals can come and drink water and that many birds come, please film it later.
You’re both such hard workers pursuing your dreams and wonderful stewards of the land. Loved the deer footage!
All that hard work will pay off with a beautiful pond!!
Adding plants around the area is going to be so nice to sit and listen to the water falling into the pond.
That is brilliant, my friend. You are very imaginary coming to your work and it shows everything you do is Gran just like you’ve been doing it for thousands of years.
Can't wait to see the pond filled!!!🎉
It would be cool to get an old well pump with a handle & set up the spring water to come out of it.
OMG... the basin is so wonderful for the new pond!
i love these updates from miracle mountain, just wonder full, a great strength to you both ... x
You’re both looking very healthy and happy. Your hard work is paying off! Thanks for another great video!
Great job you too. It was awesome seeing Bee working just as hard as you Theo. She look like she was enjoying it as well. Keep up the great Content love you guys ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm constantly impressed what you can achieve with two pairs of hands and a lot of hard work. Well done guys. Loving all the wild pond videos. Xx
Gloves, shovels, and a wheel barrow might help in clearing those stones. Looks like hard work!!
That is going to be an epic pond…..what a beautiful feature to add to your land ❤️🇨🇦
Amazing! I never knew that deer bark!
Great work!I love watching your videos!
I've been watching 2 vlogs building ponds. George's Happy Goose Family and you guys. If you haven't seen Bob and his critters it is a treat. His pond is pretty and he built a dock.

I was in the woods sitting and a dear quietly came up behind me , when it barked I jumped and then it jumped. Too funny, not a noise I thought they would make.
I'm excited to see the finished pond, It's going to be beautiful!
How exciting how the pond with water feature is coming along!
It is CERTAIN to bring wild life to Miracle Mountain and bring joy and ☮️ peace as well! ❤️🇺🇸😎
How exciting!!
I think Theo should let Bea drive that digger for awhile and let Theo do that hard physical work! Haha
Wow! I love that water feature that you created!!!
Amazing job, guys! Congratulations for another dream came true! God bless you both.
What an excellent video some really hard work,some revelation,some dreaming and you animals are a riot Must be happy to be eating apples after the forest fires.Go easy you too but it does make one giddy to see you tackle and succeed on every vision.Great examples for us weiners !

Great video guys. Pond is going to be fantastic, a lovely place to relax and enjoy. Take care and stay safe. ATB X
Put a camera up, I bet the wildlife will love that!
With her hair up, Bee looks like Little My from the Moomins. ❤
Bea, you look great. Good going.
Incredible feat!
The pool is very unlikely to hold water, with the layers of rock it will just leak away. Get a liner, very common over there for water storage ponds.
Wow never knew deer barked, that’s so mad, loved the goats reaction 😂😂
Hilarious isn’t it 🤣
Another great video, just wish they were longer! Pond is going to look great ❤
Absolutely amazing work!! Thank you for sharing! Much live to yas!❤😊
Oh goodness, Theo was so right! That's going to be a lovely feature. Yeah, one more layer to get it out farther from the end. And Bea! Lookit you!!! Your healed and growing stronger every day. That deer sound is so bizarre. It really does sound like a large dog. Wow. You made a great decision to buy this property and I'm glad you did - what fabulous content!!!!!
Use of the stone troff brilliant it's get there one step at a time🤗👍🤗💐🤗👍
Love Sue ❤❤❤🇬🇧❤❤❤
Well done !!!
The pond is going to be beautiful, but maybe the pipe running the water into the pond you could clad in something to make it disappear or look more natural, paint or wrap in clay or plaster
Who knew that deer “BARK!”
Despite having the occasional deer here on my Irish property (unfortunately munching on my young roses and hydrangeas) I never heard the barking. Wow!
Interesting the sound of the deer , great work on pond and basin ,
Theo And B you both work together so well we surely love to watch you both and we wish we could come out there and see all of you done out there when it’s all done watching you from Southern Alberta Canada throughout this whole journey of yours and it made me so envied of you guys. Wish I could’ve done that kind of stuff in my younger days now I’m 66 years old and trying to renovate our 14 x 72 trailer in a trader park here, and not getting too far ahead because it’s hard on me now for my age is getting to me.

The goats are scared to death of the deer lol. Funny
