The second photo would make a wonderful travel poster.

I bought this old sprinkler in an auction and I love it. It's a prototype, really old, about 4-1/2 feet tall. It still works great!

murraysmom - the sprinkler looks very similar to the creations of a craftsman that would sell them at Quailcrest Farm, Wooster, at their Spring or Fall arts and craft faires. He would bring quite a few and they would all sell out before the day was over. Last year and this Spring, Mom and I made the comment that we hadn't seen him at the faires. He was elderly, perhaps he retired. I am sorry I never purchased one all those years.

Ah, good old Pope. HA! That really made me smile Jim. Close, but not close enough. Poor people of Malorca don't know his name ;) (I'm kidding!)

Karen, that was a long hike, You certainly see some beautiful sights when you go hiking.

I just love that sprinkler Murraysmom! The kiddo seems to think it's nice too :-)

Thanks, PK and Schoolhouse. The little boy is now 11. He's my next door neighbor and quite a cutie. It is neat and that fact that it works is a bonus.

Beautiful pictures. I love the sprinkler I have 2 new ones like that in my front flower beds. They are shiny and pretty I got them at Lowe's.
