Located in the town of Hamburg, PA where I grew up is this old Fountain that has been here for way before I can remember. To all of you it’s just a nice fountain, but to me it has many memories.
When I was so much younger, I used to climb over the fence and play here trying to catch the large fish that were in it. The fish were large Goldfish that were all kinds of different colors. I’d catch them and then put them back in the water just for the fun of it all. Getting my clothes & shoes wet was all part of the fun. Going back home, my Mother would scold me about my wet clothes and to be more careful.
The Fountain has changed over the many years since then. It used to be red in color. There was no landscaping there like now. I was surprised to see that it was still here. I have no idea if the Fountain still sprays water or the fish are still placed in it during the late Spring & Summer. It’s a good memory for me.
Thanks for stopping by.

Good memories.
Fun to hear about your version of the fountain, Les, and your memory sounds lively and sweet.
Thank you again. It is a memory for me and always will be as long as it’s there. Everytime I pass it, I remember.
It’s always fun to visit places rich in childhood memories. They are forever tied to home and family.
Up in my ole’ town of Hamburg there are so many memories for me there.
