I recently took a trip to this place. These pictures were taken on the grounds of the mine owner’s summer cottage. The mine originated in 1850. It is located near Colfax, CA, nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Mountains.
As you approach this cottage these grand Urns. Oh boy do I love these puppies. Look at this incredible detail and the lighting was so great.
The front of the cottage is flanked by double fountains, and just beyond the row of bushes you see in the picture above it drops down to a reflecting pond and another fountain that comes out of the wall.
Another great planter.
