Keeping Cool

Kids run through this fountain at Crown Center to keep cool on our hot, hot days.  Gradually the fountain shoots much higher. We have been in the high 90's and 100's for the last couple of weeks and add high humidity to that number and we have heat indexes (feels like temperatures) at 105-115.

Come on over... we're hovering in the 60s and have been for 2 weeks now. Nice grey sky too!

Oh, that is hot! This looks like a great place to cool off. I remember going shopping here once.

I like big public fountains like this. Definitely needed during the heat wave.

I think I would be tempted to join those kids - it looks like great fun!

Great photo! Is this where the ice skating rink is also? It's been so many years since I was there that I cannot remember. My dearly departed husband helped build Crown Center, back in the day.

So did you run through it? Remember how fun it used to be to run through a sprinkler. Those were the days.

Fun! Fun! Fun! I love water fountains like those where kids and adults can play around and get wet in the summer heat!
