Esther’s Pump
Esther’s pump. When this Schwinn Paramount was brazed in Chicago 50 years ago, this trough still held water for cattle in what has been a corn/soy bean field for many years now. There used to be two fences parallel to the road here which served as a conduit to the field for the cattle. My earliest memory of this spot was sheltering from a summer downpour next to the barn (opposite this pump) with a small group of riders on an AYH (American Youth Hostels) ride in 1966.
