Hokay Mr. & Mrs. Hoptiki, here's that photo you wanted:

The photograper in me just couldn't use a flash, so I hope this exposure is bright enough for you. I got this fountain years ago at the wholesale convention that is here in Vegas semi-annually. It was made by a company in Arizona that is out of business now, or at least has been swallowed up by a bigger company. Anyway, the fountain has two sides and two pumps, and it's made out of PVC covered in a bamboo overlay. The water pours from the tallest to the shortest, and then back into the reservoir to get pumped up to the top again. To top it all off, there are two fake macaws and the obligatory indonesian mask that I will eventually replace with some kind of carving of my own making. It's really wonderful overall, but it's kinda loud for indoors. If I had an enclosed porch, it'd be perfect out there.

Here's a photo I forgot to post last time:

It's a sliver of wallspace between where the T.V. will be mounted to the wall and the door to the laundry room. Those three framed artworks are signed and numbered limited edition prints by our patron saint William Westenhaver. I love 'em to death!

Kahuna- a reverse-mounted L-bracket works wonders, don't it? You just have to skillfully place the mugs in such a way as to "skip that bump". The wood is redwood carved and burned the Witco Way!

Mahaloz!
