Re: Not sure on model but would like to try to save

I have never seen a windmill ...not...worth saving. Restoring is one thing, saving is another.

Re: Dandy Irrigator

Looks like it. The regular Dandys I've seen had the turntable in the stormstay with balls.

Memorial Day Tribute.

Hey folks..... I made this in my studio. Has nothing to do with windmills, but Memorial Day is near. All the speakers and singer are from Ames. Some not here anymore, all Veterans of past wars, except Audry the singer. She is too young, but a dynamite singer, and the ex's cousin. Please if you like ...

Re: Oklahoma

Lots of tornado warnings going around. We here had a small one go north of us, and 2 small ones go south of us. We actually threaded the needle. Reports have one death over east in Barnsdall.
