Round like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel...
Recently erected, now producing power for the farm. It is visible as you come into Saline from the east.
A 5 foot Monitor Steel mill (left, circa 1923-1936) and a 8 foot Heller-Aller (right, circa 1923) spinning in the breeze. The Windmill Farm is Ruby and Chuck Rickgauer's passion, started when they brought a vintage windmill home from Ruby's family farm in South Dakota 20 years ago. Their collection has grown to 40 now.

Mike and I decided that the best way to see Mykonos (Μύκονος) was to rent an ATV. After leaving the Avis rental office, we initially set off toward Korfos (Κόρφος) Bay, then reversed our route and made our way inland toward Ano Mera (Άνω Μερά). Along the way, we passed Bonis Windmill, which is affiliated with the Folklore Museum of Mykonos and located along Eparchiaki Odos Mikonou (Επαρχιακή Οδός Μυκόνου).
De Zwaan Windmill is America's only authentic, working Dutch windmill. The windmill was brought to America from the town of Vinkel in the province of Noord Brabant
Before electricity came to the country, and for many years after that matter, harnessing wind power was common and usually attached to a water well. An especially valuable piece of equipment where cattle needed a plentiful supply of water even when mother nature did not provide rainfall to keep ponds and slews filled.
This was taken on an impromptu day trip to Anglesey. An amazing day out visiting some favourite old haunts. Late in the afternoon we arrived at Lynnon windmill: the last remaining working mill on Anglesey. It had officially closed for the day but we were very kindly allowed access to take a couple of photos!
When I arrived in Amsterdam I went on a tour through the city and the hinterland. And how could I experience the Netherlands more authentic then on a bike...?
Our first stop outside of the city was at a historic windmill. This one is an original one and probably about 200+ years old. A dutch guy is living in it. He looks after it and takes care of that old lady. It's very sad that of those thousands of mills only a few are left today. So he does an important job here...
So my trip through the Netherlands started with some of the biggest clichés: bikes and windmills. What could be the next? ;)
Just as we needed to leave, a wedding party spilled out of their cars, and began to prepare for the celebrations...
tenuous link: windmills
I've seen this often from the skies when approaching Cranfield, but never visited. Still looking for good field pics I wandered around the field on the bridleway but didn't get close to the windmill. Another day.
