Patti and I really enjoy visiting Fountain Hills, Arizona.
Fountain Hills is located in the Northeastern part of the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. If you click onto the below link you can see where it is located.

Built in 1970 by Robert McCulloch, the fountain is one of the largest fountains in the world! The fountain sprays water for 15 minutes every hour at the top of the hour. The fountain uses 7,000 gallons per minute and at its full height it can reach 560 feet in the air.
The plume rises from a concrete water lily sculpture in the center of a man-made lake.

AT FOUNTAIN HILLS, ARIZONA
The Mayo Clinic here in the Phoenix, Arizona, greater metro area, has several individual Campuses (or if you prefer Campi).
The Shea Campus is relatively close to Fountain Hills. So often, after an appointment at the Shea Campus, Patti and I will drive over to Fountain Hills to see the fountain.
And then we have The Fountain on St. Patrick's Day when The Fountain turns green !

And there you have it. A visit to The Fountain in Fountain Hills, Arizona.
