Today we went to Fountain Hills, north of Mesa, to get a look at this big fountain we heard about.  It spews forth once an hour reaching a height of 330 feet.  On special occasions, the fountain can attain 560 feet.  Even though I was there today apparently they did not feel it was a special enough occasion as it did not appear to be 560 feet to me.

 After watching the fountain do it’s thing we drove around the town to explore a bit and found this junk horse statue in a shopping center parking lot.  It was rather interesting and filled with junk, from a washing machine to a car bumper and kitchen appliances.

 Also, in the parking lot of a nearby restaurant we saw the beginnings of a car show.   It wasn’t to officially begin for an hour yet, and we didn’t feel like sitting around and waiting for it, so we left.
