A barefooted Jim Fackert is sitting by the Dreiseitl sculpture/fountain in front of city hall. The water is turned off, and he’s working on the wiring. “Lots of little pieces,” he says.

    I went for a walk, stopped at Mark’s Carts, had to cross the street because of construction, saw a group of people, wondered what was happening and ran into Venus. Thank you to the folk who made it happen.

    Any word on when it will be in working order?

    When I left city hall at around 8:30 p.m., both the water and the lights were functioning. But I’m not sure if the fountain is fully functional yet. The design calls for water to be piped up into the sculpture and flow down. As far as I can tell, it’s still just coming out of the bottom of the sculpture.
