Water Fountains

August 22

I am thankful for water fountains. I enjoy most water features including fountains and waterfalls. They look nice and the sound of of water falling is very soothing.

This is a photo of the Baton Rouge River Center's water fountain and the old state capitol in the background. This photograph was taken a couple of years ago but I just processed it today. Unfortunately, at least in my opinion, this water feature, which included a stream which tumbled down a hill into this water fountain, is no longer there. It was ripped out and replaced with a grassy area. I'm not sure exactly why they did that but I think it might be so that people can use it as grounds to listen to music concerts. I'll try to reserve my negativity until I see exactly what their plans are.

water fountains are calming

and they are so beautiful to look at

but when you’re hot and dry

you prefer a drinking fountain to that.
