Happy kid. Focus is "softer" than I like, but his face is worth sharing.


Buddha and his brothers. Was the Buddha a middle child?


Chaotic, but a lot of triangles.


It was a good day for tailgating.

4. These are great. Looks like
a place to keep visiting over the summer. The dogs look like they are longing for the fountain too. I loved your other set too. As to allowing people in the fountain, if you are going to make a fountain with that easy of access, that looks like it is saying come in and play then you just have to allow kids to play in them.


I can remember being a kid splashing in fountains and the reflecting pool in DC and they weren't easy to enter. Way back in the old days when they kept the fountain and reflecting pool water crystal clear and clean. I hear they are cleaning the reflecting pools and trying to put in a system to keep them clean now. :)

5. They try to inform people that the water gets polluted from
kids playing in it. That's the first thing a kid does it place his/her butt over the stream of water. Those kids leave with the the cleanest butts in town. Still, it is fun watching them cool off in the water.

There's another one that looks like a big door frame. Water comes from the top crossmember and falls straight down. We call it our community shower. It only works when the wind is low.
