Fountain Madness!

I would have to say if I have one addiction it would be fountains. I cant get enough of them, the sound of running water is very soothing to me. This is my newest fountain. The Serenity Fountain from Hallmark. I think its wayyyyyy overpriced, but when you love something you tend to somewhat overlook that. I've waited about 2 months to get this. With my leftover vacation money, I finally went and purchased it.
This fountain sits on the deck. He makes alot of noise...I love him because of that. AND my cat and dog thinks that these fountains are for them to grab a quick drink.
This is the fountain that started it all. Baldyman bought me this about 6 years ago for Mothers Day. We've replaced the pump at least 3 times now. This is Genies favorite stop for a drink, its right next to the front stoop to enter the house and so she'll just about drain this of water before she comes in. I have to refill this sometimes twice a day.

I have a few more fountains, one small one in the office, one in the little cabin, and then my little pond. I'm on the lookout now for the clearance fountains for outside because I want some on the sides of the house also. The birds will enjoy taking a dip in those!

First I have to say that that's a pretty good addiction as far as addictions go and second, everything at Hallmark is overpriced. lol
I'm impressed that you came back from Vegas with leftover money, good job!

Yes i love them too. And yours are great. You have a real eye for decorating and making things nice Dawnie. You could have been an interior or exterior designer.

I love the sound of the water via a fountain, waterfall, or a babbling brook.
