Hi Michele, I just thought of a couple of other features of the carillon that I didn't mention. It is over 100 feet high and canbe heard 3 or 4 miles away. Also it chimes like a clock on the hour and half hour. BILL

Thank YOU for the information Bill - It sounds like it is worth the money and a treasure to have on your riverwalk as it should be around forever ...This is very interesting information Bill and it would work nicely in your 'about' section if you ever feel like it ..just a thought because I am sure others are not so familiar with this as well... Again 'thank you ' for the info . Michele~

Hi Michele, I'm so glad that you like my Carillon. This is a musical bell tower that has a keyboard similar to a piano and they can actually give two hour long concerts with it. The many bells in it range from tiny bells to the largest one which weighs 5 tons. This was built near our riverwalk about four years ago at the cost of 1.7 million dollars. BILL
