Thank you Mike B. I am sure I will have many questions as I go through this process and I am so happy to have found this site with people that are willing to help. I am totally lost but dedicated to restoring this as a dedication to the town and to the family that owned it and established this town many years ago.

There were Nebraska stub towers in Western Nebraska only about 10 ft tall. Easy to make and doesn't take much lumber.
