The Victorian Fountain at Government House Annapolis, Maryland

This beautiful Victorian-style fountain was created and installed in the garden at Government House in 1990. The fountain was designed by Graham Landscape Architects in Annapolis and sculptor Lyle Beddes of Historical Arts and Casting helped to create it. The design includes many images that represent Maryland and its bounty, including corn, crabs, tobacco, terrapins and the Baltimore Oriole, the state bird.

The fountain was the inspiration of former governor William Donald Schaefer and his official hostess Hilda Mae Snoops. It cost $169,000 and was paid for with private funds. In 1994, Governor Schaefer officially dedicated the fountain to Mrs. Snoops, who died in 1999.

Government House, which stands across the street from the historic Maryland State House in Annapolis, was built in 1868 as a high Victorian mansion. In 1935, it was expanded and completely renovated into the style of a five-part Georgian house. The fountain stands near a bay window that still remains from the building's Victorian beginnings.

Mr. Congeniality at the Cantor

I have a confession: I get in trouble a lot at the Cantor Arts Center.

I know, arts editors should be setting a good example. But I go into exhibits with my little reporter's notebook and take notes in pen, when only pencils are allowed. The museum guards have a word with me. I take photos of the sculptures with my little pink iPhone. You're usually not supposed to do that.

I could play the press card and tell the truth, which is that I'm considering the exhibition for an article. But that seems snotty. So I just keep getting in trouble. It's not the guards' fault. I just forget to bring a pencil. (Sorry, Anna.)

Today, though, I had a really nice interaction with one of the museum guards. In a hurry, I was dashing in and out of the galleries getting quick looks at a few of the shows. Somehow, the same guard ended up holding the door for me three times.

He was a friendly young guy, and finally I said: "Three times. That's getting to be a record."

Without missing a beat, he said, "I'd do it a hundred times if you went through that many doors."

I felt like I was in a Cary Grant movie.
