A surprise find for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Fire Hydrants
I was walking downtown yesterday – making my way back from a huge outdoor flea market – on a splintery “boardwalk” along the river. It was low tide in this tidal river and I noticed a huge pipe sticking out of the water. It snaked under the boardwalk path and out to a strip of grass bordering a parking lot.
Much to my surprise…this is what the pipe led to:
If it hadn’t been labeled, I may not have guessed what it was.
Have you ever seen one like this?
That’s an interesting fire hydrant. We don’t have anything that looks like that here. 😀 😀

Thanks. I was intrigued to find something out of the ordinary. I am thinking the fire dept would use a pumper truck to get the water (?), but what do I know LOL.

Fascinating. It looks like they take the water from the lake/pond. I think you are right. They must need a truck of some sort.

I think one of the fire trucks has this capability (or so I am told!).
