At the cache, you will see a windmill close up.

The Fairbury Vaneless windmills were the first mills manufactured by the Fairbury Iron Works and Wind Mill Company, later the Fairbury Windmill Company, of Fairbury, Nebraska. They are one of the most attractive and easiest to identify of the wooden vaneless windmills to be seen today.
This is a view only, cache is not at the Silo.

Silo: a tall cylinder (as of wood or concrete) usually sealed to exclude air and used for making and storing silage.

Love this series. Unfortunately the trackable was not located in the cache as listed. Hope it turns up soon

Oh my, where to begin. I try not to do cut and paste logs, but I didn't take the best notes today and we hit a ton of caches today. It's official, peacelovepi and I are working on the 360 degrees of Colorado challenge and I'm racing to get to 3000 finds. We came out to get some rays around the airport today. The weather didn't look like it was going to be bad, but we both underestimated the power of the wind. And the tumbleweeds. We did some power trailing, she was the driver and I was the runner. LOL I got absolutely accosted by tumbleweeds today - at multiple stops! I even had thorns in my pockets by the end of our run! Between the chill and the wind, logs were signed as "la pi" and they were usually signed wherever we could get to easiest/first. I thought we were going to cache all day, but by the time we got to the end of the listed caches here we were ready to call it a day. A big thank you to all the COs for the smileys and the 360 degree rays! This one was find #2965 for me.

lasouthpaw and I are working on the 360 challenge and decided to hit this area today. We had a great day of caching with the exception of the wind. As the driver I really lucked out and didn't have to brave getting hit upside the head by sagebrush like poor lasouthpaw. TFTC! All is well with this cache.

Apparently I am no longer able to find a cache without being accompanied by the lovable and always cheerful herndonrd. Today was no exception, as I was out and about caching with herndonrd simply because I make him look good. He typically finds the caches while I look in all the wrong places. Today was an especially exciting day since I let him drive, which is like going to a carnival except you can't get fried Twinkies.

But I digress.

Today my goal was to find 24 caches (no more, no less) so I could complete another challenge that I signed far too long ago. Since herndonrd was occupied operating the heavy machinery, it was my job to do the fetching. Fortunately this was a quick and easy one. After I did the whole sign and replace thing we celebrated our victory by getting in the car and then driving off to another cache. Thanks for the fun hide and for getting me outside on such a beautiful day.

P. S. No animals (humans or otherwise) were harmed in the writing of this log.
