This was what I saw when I opened our front door to get the morning newspaper. We have been "suds'd" - or whatever you call it when someone dumps what is most likely a couple bottles of dishwashing soap into our waterfall. It's happened once before since living here - back in 2004....I guess I'm kind of surprised it hasn't happened more often as it really is kind of a dazzling little prank.
John took these with his I-phone and the HD setting - so the color is kind of tweaked... We'll put some anti-foam chemical in the fountain later this morning and use the hose to water it down, but not until all of the kids (Michele and the kids are down this weekend) wake up and take in the sight.
Well done, pranksters....now we'd like to ask you to keep us off your radar for another five years, lest this begin to kill off the precious little purple flowers that I just noticed yesterday were beginning to bloom.....

Wow that's crazy!
never seen that before in a home fountain. I must say it IS spectacular!!
WOW! I couldn't help buy giggle and show the boys, who got a kick out of that!;) That IS a very impressive prank!:)
For the record, laughter is okay...don't feel guilty - we all got a kick out of seeing it too.
After three hose-downs by John and some anti-foam liquid, there is still a little left at the bottom. We found a box of SUN detergent left on our yard -
I'm guessing the rocks and other debris in the fountain will be nice and clean now!
tee hee... I LOVE THIS! Ha remember when Kaela washed our car suds in the fountain.. :) miss you steph
