all year. I have a fountain below it with a small plastic pond, but am
considering
making a larger pond 8x3 from 4x4 oak wood, will this water be to cool for
pond plants. I know it has to be aerated to support fish. (My fishing
minnows died
before I realized well water has no oxygen).

That will depend on the type of plants you want to grow-there are a lot of
water plants that will do very well at F 60, but the water in the pond will
heat up as the air temps rise.
There are some nice cold water lily pads out there and cattails will do well
plus a good sized list of other plants.
