The wishing well fit perfectly in place in the Storybook Land at Vala’s Pumpkin Patch in Nebraska. When I was there in late July I made the effort to place a level on the ground to get an accurate measurement of the slope. We purposely built the bottom of the wishing well at this angle to ensure it would stand up straight when it was placed at the juncture of the paths. It worked out perfectly - as we knew it would.
