To "gentian": No, the bogs in Illinois aren't the ones you refer to, but
thanks for mentioning those! I'll check out the website pictures.
To John Green and others: Thanks for the advice about my outdoor
bog. I installed them this past week, and I tilted them a bit, but not a
whole lot. We got some rain after I installed the second one, but didn't
have it filled yet, so I got to see how the water settled in the bottom: it
was deeper on the low end, but not that much deeper than the high
end. So hopefully it will work. Thanks for the straw comments also...
I will definitely stick to pine needles instead of straw!
