    In episode #3 of the pond tours we go to two completely different ponds. The first pond is set at a retirement home ( Country Estates Retirement Home) where the residents just love sitting out at the pond taking in the sights and the sounds of the huge Waterfalls and beautiful pond with amazing lilies and other plants. This pond is planted and has goldfish.
    One of their vibrant residents is a 104 years old ( Frida) Percy a Canadian Military Vet is the life of the party there.
    The second pond we look at is set at a beautiful English garden with a beautiful lily pond. Wendy our hostess is a wonderful English Lady who takes us our showing us all her beautiful plants and even tries to teach me the formal names of the plants.
    We had some technical issues and had to return to finish filming
    She was so graceful about it.

    Absolutely loved both tours. Every retirement home should have a pond. The English garden was beautiful, I really loved it. ❤

    Great video. So nice to see the retirement home residents being able to get out and enjoy the pond and the time with each other. The English garden was quite something and I'm pleased to say I actually recognized some of the flowers which for me is pretty good. 🤣 Looking forward for the next tour. 👍🏻

    The English garden at Wendy’s was so lovely. So many varieties of plants and flowers she has there. Truly a delight seeing it all.

    That waterfall at the old folks home is something else. Perhaps you need to learn some posh plant names for future tours. Eating nasturtiums is ab old remedy for hayfever. I also think that Sandra might want to keep her hands to herself before you get banned!

    Love the pond at the retirement home, such a nice waterfall and those deep pink waterlilies are gorgeous! Wow, 104! I think Rainey wants a shirt like yours 😂. If I ever go to live at a retirement home, I want it to have a pond. Great shot of the frog jumping onto the lily!
    Really enjoyed Wendy's gardens, too. I especially liked the Japanese anemone and the elderberry. Pretty cats.

      Like someone else said I think they should almost be mandatory at a retirement home just so they can get that comfort and feeling of being one with nature I'm sure it does a lot for their mind and their soul Speaking of that you can't get much better soul and heart than yours, thank you my friend
