Statue Admiring

About five years ago, I made this ten-day trip to Athens, Greece. 

One day while out walking, I came around this corner, and here was this artsy sales shop on the street, where 'merchandise' was laid out. 

I spent around three minutes standing there and admiring 'booby' lady and the water-fountain appearance. 

In Alabama, we would have put something like this near the barn and offered up this for horses and cattle to sip from, while standing there after sweating through a trailer-load of handling hay. 

I didn't have a chance to ask the Greek guy about the cost factor....it was probably at least a thousand dollars.  He probably sold a dozen of them yearly.  Greek guys have time to sip coffee and stand there to admire things like this....daily.  It's probably a good thing that you can't buy things like this in the US.
