Mother Nature's "Music" -- Waterfall and Thunderstorm This long video of our backyard waterfall/rock garden/"mountain" is designed to relax and calm the viewer with its natural sounds of running/falling water and thunder. Watching this video may even have a very sleep-inducing or soporific effect on you -- so don't even listen to this aqueous video if you're driving or running some machinery! Try using this video as a surrogate drug for over-the-counter or prescribed meds (i.e., Advil PM; Ambian; Lunesta; etc) if you want some nonchemical, sedative aid to tranquilize or relax yourself and, especially, to make you feel very drowsy/sleepy. Near the end of this video, you will notice sounds of a train and a motorcycle - you may ride either to visit Slumber Land!! If this video doesn't cure your insomnia, you can ask for a full refund of the purchase price! (ha!) This backyard, five-tier waterfall was constructed 35 years ago by first hauling in 4 truckloads of topsoil to build an 8-foot high berm. Then we built our waterfall using iron reinforcing mesh, concrete, and lichen/"moss"-covered limestone boulders and rocks gathered from our countryside—mainly the old landfill area. The pump that's down in the small 110-gallon "pond" will recycle 4500 gallons per hour. To make our berm look a bit like a miniature "rocky mountain," we also planted some ponderosa and piňon pines, plus some aspen trees and columbine flowers. We and hundreds of guests, visitors, and tourists have immensely enjoyed this beautiful, natural-appearing water feature! To visit our youtube site again, Google: kimball ne meyers gardens
