Tacoma Fountain



Today I enjoyed the fountain at the theater on the square, just off of Broadway.

To me, it's Olympic-sized, and that Salmon would be tasty (would hardly compare to Olga's homemade Lutefisk, though).

It's a relaxing area, though I believe that I'd get trampled if I came here on a Thursday to the Farmer's Market.

Being a farmer in the woods, I really appreciate the ability to get fresh fruit and vegetables on a regular basis. There's nothing like having a nice lingonberry with a acorn cap full of dandelion wine.

In the background, you can see the home office for Russell Investment Group, though I get a good laugh at their acronym ... seeing as they are a massive investor in the markets here in the states. I hear they are a great place to work, with many upstanding people filling their ranks.

I'm certainly enjoying my visit.

Dear Mr. Gnome,

I believe you missed an excellent opportunity to position yourself in relation to the photographer so as to appear as if you were urinating into the fountain.

Please consider this photo opportunity the next time you find yourself at Theater Square

Mr. Erik,

Excellent observation!

I am not above such humorous shenanigans, and will consider more interesting positioning in the future.
