    I love this the best of all water features I've watched. I will do it on a smaller scale as im in a condo.. It's the most beautiful so far and most importantly give me the sound effect I'm looking for. I'm a healthy 72 year old and I may need help with heavy items, but my grandson will do what I can't. He is happy to help, lives on the east coast (I'm In SanDiego but he can't get here for several months but that gives me time to get what I need and do what I can and plan. I'll put plants all around it. Thank you so much.😍
