Fountain Lions

Not sure what I can say about this lovely fountain...

It is located outside a local self-storage business.

Nice!

The Village at Meridian

The Village at Meridian

is a shopping center in Boise, Idaho.

These delightful sculptures

depict the joys of reading.

Old School

Here are some pictures of the courtyards and colonnades

of the Old Administration Building (OAB)

at Fresno City College.

Read a bit of the history of Fresno City College

HERE,

and see some excellent photos,

especially of the Library.

Inside these walls there is a beautiful

auditorium, in which I will be participating

in a musical program called

"A Little Night Music"

in just a couple of weeks.

When classes are in session

you will see students sitting

in these areas studying.

Once upon a time,

even rain spouts were works of art.

Fountain with Birds

Fountain at front entrance to hotel

in Palm Desert, CA.

Note mountains with snow in the background.

This blackbird seems a little mystified

by the huge motionless

white birds.

Joe's Steak House

Welcome to Joe's Steakhouse & Grill!

Located in downtown Fresno,

Joe's Steakhouse & Grill

is a dandy spot for a delicious lunch

or a fabulous dinner

(probably breakfast, too).

Once you have found a parking spot

(there is a large parking garage right next door)

you can park yourself in this clever bench

until your hunger drives you inside!

The sight and sound

of this fountain will soothe you,

but I do not recommend drinking from it.

Just sayin'.

These photos were taken in August 2017.

Palms and Fountains in Anaheim

Anaheim Convention Center,

arena peeking into the photo from left

like what is being called a "photo bomb" these days;

similarly the flagpole finial in the center of the pic

jutting toward the fountain...

"Big A" sculpture in the distance,

and beyond that a glimpse of 

Disney's "California Adventure" amusement park.

Palm trees,

concentric decorative paving...

very nearly too many elements in this photo.

How many humans can you find in this pic?
