This one's a little dry.

My tour of Little Italy today takes me back to the park. In the park is the Ortona Fountain. This was built to honor those who gave there lives in the Battle of Ortona which took place Dec. 20-28 1943
I am sure it would look very nice if it was turned on. I do like the small statue at the top of the fountain

[Kerri]

Beautiful

[Arnold Garza]

very nice.

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

That looks a very pleasant place for a walk or a wander.

[Jane]

Beautiful memorial ... shame it was not turned on ♥

[Elizabeth Youngs]

It's a beautiful fountain! Too bad it was off.

[❀ Lynn]

Nice fountain..wonder why it's off.

[Kim]

This looks like a wonderful place to spend some time just enjoying the surroundings. Too bad the fountain was not on.

[Sandra]

[tony j sisti]

looks like a wonderful place to sit and contemplate

[👑 AnaZad]

Very nice fountain. It reminds me of my hometown park where I grew up.

[Tony]

Delightful capture Brian. What do you call a fountain without water ??

[Shirley Chetwynd]

To sit and watch as the water overflows would be so relaxing.

[Ellen Young]

Very Nice Capture of the fountain and the statue bkb!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Fountains usually recycle the water that's in them, so it's surprising that it's not running. It's still pretty though. Nice shot.

[Vicki Dixon]

you got some good reflections there in that fountain!

[mervyn hobbs]

It looks to be a really nice place to walk around.

[Ian Fisher]

Nice looking fountain, and the bench beside it looks a nice place to sit and relax!

[Rob]

It looks like a fabulous place! Nice capture!

[Paula]

Beautiful fountain!

[Harry J Benson]

nice composition, do they ever have it turned on?

[bruni]

A fountain without water..are you having a water restriction at this time? so we just have to imagine what it would look like. I bet it's even prettier at that time.

[Carole Imes]

I bet it is gorgeous turned on with the water flowing. Nice memorial!

[John]

What a peaceful looking park and fountain!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Lovely capture.
