Although not, really all that different than the fountain fixture that used to sit right in the center of the wading pool. In any case, this "Google Images" is amazing. What will they think of next?<br /><br />Larry, I'm pretty sure the wading pool is less than 60 years old. Maybe just under 50.Tom Porterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08763818256131443456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035949355013113578.post-13792073745054466702016-03-09T20:44:32.896-05:002016-03-09T20:44:32.896-05:00Fire Department is not overly fond of the practice...Fire Department is not overly fond of the practice.

Makes no sense, perfect for rich Amherst.<br /><br />Would be cheaper just to bring in some inner city kids and a couple of wrenches for some seminars with the less educated local kids that don't know how to get hosed on their own.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035949355013113578.post-4206569895753325592016-03-09T11:27:25.041-05:002016-03-09T11:27:25.041-05:00"m I the only person in town who doesn't ..."m I the only person in town who doesn't know how to picture what the 'spray park' will be?"<br /><br />That's what they created Google images for.

Very difficult to get a sense of what's actually going to be built, even after reading the 26p proposal, other than that it will 'provide endless hours of fun' and will serve 'environmental justice populations.'<br /><br />Is it safe to assume a spray park is a place where one can get wet but cannot actually 'get in the water,' thus reducing cost for insurance premiums or for employing a lifeguard?Tom Porterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08763818256131443456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035949355013113578.post-53663666062174710852016-03-08T19:34:23.166-05:002016-03-08T19:34:23.166-05:00Yep.
