Does anyone know of a free service that checks a specific webpage for changes and sends you an alert? I want to keep track of when more details are posted to a webpage that lacks any sort of system changes/updates.

I’ve managed to adopt 4 new travel quests during this trip:

  • Visit the smallest country on each continent (I’m at 3/6)

  • Visit 24 different time zones (22/24)

  • Visit every state/territory in Australia (2/8)

  • Touch every ocean (5/6; note: I split the Pacific into northern & southern)

Memorial Drinking Fountains

Thank you for visiting my blog. As of 2024 the database contains 447 posts identifying cast iron drinking fountains located around the world. The inventory of these unique art pieces is very limited and I seem to have exhausted those with history available for research. Although I will continue to post items to keep the blog active, future posts may only contain photographs and location information.
