Churches, Fountain, Flowers, and Unique Architecture All Found in Western Mass City

                                                          (Click to enlarge photos)




Driving along in a small city in Western Massachusetts, I spotted an arrangement of petunias on the side of the road.  They were drop dead gorgeous, exploding with color!

Since it was a public location, I have no idea who did the planting but whoever it was, they did a great job. The profusion of purple and pink colors made the flowers really stand out.

I drove the car over to a parking lot, got out, and took the photos shown in this post. Isn't this arrangement  absolutely fabulous?


As I drove near the main street of this small city, there was a town green that all the traffic drove by. Along the sides were yellow day lilies.


Smack dab in the middle stood this lovely fountain. With the afternoon sun coming through and illuminating it, it looked quite picturesque.

Since it was a hot day, the thought of how refreshing it would be to just jump into the fountain crossed my mind. However, it would have looked rather strange to the cars passing by. Plus, there was no way I'd risk getting my camera wet.





Nearby stood a rather majestic old building that apparently used to be the town library. 




One reason I love New England is the variety of  flowers, fountains, and unique architecture of the buildings.





WOULD YOU LOVE THE PETUNIA  ARRANGEMENT TO BE IN YOUR YARD?

WHAT ABOUT A FOUNTAIN? WOULD YOU WANT ONE?
