Backyard Fountain

I put the backyard fountain in place this morning and filled it with water so that I could see and hear it while pulling weeds from the gravel in the backyard. After all weeds are pulled, we will put down a fabric covering to keep out the weeds, then get a load of gravel and spread it over the covering. This may happen by the end of the week. But for now, get a load of the fountain, which we bought at Jackalope's in Albuquerque. We haven't seen one like it around here. In the first picture above, taken from the front, you can see the slits in the side for the water to go through after coming out above.
In the second picture, you can see the gentle waves on top of the fountain. It has a pump, but it doesn't have much pressure to it. If it did, all the water would spurt out.

We hope you like it, because we do.

Gorgeous fountain! I can't wait to see the patio when the gravel is in. You should do it while the weather is so nice.
