General:
Turning to look westward toward Lake Worth, we see the patio from the house. Notice the tall columnar cypresses used at each corner of the fountain. They create an illusion of far away Italy. There are always many pots of flowering plants adding color to the patio. In the far distance can be seen the guest house on the Lake Worth. There is an oriental carpet laid on the patio.
Historic plate number: "45."
