Re: Beautiful morning......
That's a view I could happily get used to! My hope is to (someday) turn a grain-bin into a gazebo/cabana, with a windmill next to it.

Re: 18' Challenge 27 @ auction
I live not far from Sigourney. I might go, just to look...no $$ to bid, sadly. Someday, my mill will come....
