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.
The pumping station in Davy Down Riverside Park lit by the setting sun. It was built by the Essex and Suffolk Water Company in the 1920's to extract water, which lies approximately 40 meters below the ground in an underground store known as an aquifer.
Originally diesel engines (still housed in the pumping station) were used to pump over 3 million gallons of water a day. These have since been replaced by an electric pump which still provides over one million gallons of water a day to surrounding households.

A detail from the Hindley of Burton pumping wheel.
Honestly more fascinated by the geometry of the engine and the window behind rather than the pump in itself :)
Pumping station near Oud-Vossemeer, Zeeland. Originally a steam pumping station, they later put in a diesel engine, and today it is even completely electric
This old hand pumper was captured in historic Fredericksburg, Virginia.
Until the mid-19th century, most fires were fought by water transported to the scene in buckets. Original hand pumpers discharged their water through a small pipe or monitor attached to the top of the pump tub.[1] It was not until the late 1860s that hoses became widely available to convey water more easily from the hand pumps, and later steam pumpers, to the fire.

Lunch at the Pump Room - this dessert is really called 'Pump Room glory'. It is vanilla ice cream, strawberry meringue, chocolate brownie and fudge cream (I am actually allergic to strawberries, so this was an indulgence bordering on stupidity - but it was SO GOOD!)
For Our Daily Challenge: Energy

Cruisin' Grand Firefighter Night, 2009.
aken today, 17 Sept 2020 for a family outing only to have lunch at the beach front without even taking a dip. Just enjoyed the sunset and the cool wind atmosphere.
This old well pump has been sitting on the well cover, just waiting for us to install it, oh for years now. It will be super handy for the ducks and the garden.
Including the one this will be used with, we have three wells on this farm, so we're not exactly hurting for water. But non-electric water will be sweet.
