We have a tradition in our house to take our humans for a walk on holiday mornings. So, Christmas morning, we took our peeps with us to the windmill park.
First thing we did was drag dad over to meet the geese!
Their little pond was half-frozen, but they didn't seem to mind.
They honked their greetings and seemed glad to see us.
But right away, mom noticed something was "off" about the windmill..... it looked a little different than usual.
Yup, sure enough, it was facing a different direction! Its always faced towards the parking lot - but this time, it was facing the open field to the south! Mom & dad figured out that the entire top turns. That makes sense, cause you would get more power out of it if you adjust it to face into the wind! We walked to the side for a picture. Mom noticed the shudders were open on the window -
Since we had dad with us & he's furry tall, he was able to take pictures thru
the window and we got our first glimpse inside...
Pretty cool, huh?
Mom took an interesting shot looking through the garden gate arbor...
...and we got our picture with dad although Moo was
getting bored & wanted to go explore by this time....
It was furry peaceful and quiet, and we enjoyed having dad along. We even gave him a treat when we got home fur being such a good dad!A-roos to yous and toodle-woo!

I'm glad you had such a lovely walk. I would have been confused about the windmill too; I didn't know they could turn around!
Great walk! And how smart to figure out that the windmill turns!!
One of the fun things about blogs is how much we learn. We didn't know that a windmill building could turn like that - very cool.
Hope you enjoyed your walk.

What a great adventure! That's kind of cool about the top of the windmill turning! And great to take a peek inside!

So have you ever been able to go inside the windmill?? Just wondering.
Makes sense that it would turn, but I wouldn't realize it either until I saw it. :)
Looks like you had a great walk. Hope you had a great Christmas.
what a great way to start the day. Very cool
