our days are numbered

 Downtown Minneapolis.

Fountain

 Cooling down on a hot summer day in Minneapolis.

The Berger Fountain in Loring Park, also known as the Dandelion Fountain. In 2020,  a Park Board committee and Loring Park community groups agreed to collaborate on a restoration project estimated to cost more than one million dollars. This photo is from July, 2012.

Fountain photo-bomb

Noticed the reflection of the Minnesota Building in a fountain along Kellogg Boulevard and had just lined up the shot when this guy wandered into frame and added his own special something to the mix.

Cloudy day okay to play

Even a bit of rain and clouds can't keep everyone away from one of the public fountains in Houston, Texas.

Fountain for two

Hennepin Avenue, Minneapolis.

Pope's got a garden in St. Paul

Stumbled across this while wandering around the West Side. Climbed a set of metal stairs set into a woody hillside that popped me out right near, no lie, "Pope John Paul II's Neighborhood Children and Adult Garden".

Chateau. Rhymes with "whoa".

Chateau St. Croix Winery and Vineyard. Quality wines and a French-influenced chateau right in the Twin Cities' backyard. The Riesling and the Jaune D'or Port were knockout favorites.
