It must be near a clothing store. I like the border that edges the planter.

Comfortable looking place to wait or just watch shadows. Nice looking tile around the top of the planter.

Benches for husbands is a nice idea! This wouldn't be a bad place to have to wait.

I really like the capstones on the planter bed. Lovely tiles. Shadows are so serene.

I always like your shadow photos. I guess that is the Arizonan in me - always seeking shade!
