Good Moo-rning everyone!
Its been a while since a proper View from the Moo, but mom has the day off so here we go...
Jack & I have been trying to solve a mystery...
what is living undder the deck?
It's dug a pretty good-size exit into mom's bushes
where we're not allowed to dig ...totally not fair, don't woo agree?
And its got a couple exit holes that go out into the yard.
Jack is using his excellent snooter powers to catch its scent...
We haven't caught it out in the open yet, but we will....one of these days!
Woo know the windmill in the park where w go sometimes?
The park peeps had a special day when woo could
go INSIDE the windmill - how cool is that?
(harumph... "No Dogs Allowed", so Mom went without us.
Check ouot the views from the upper windows!

| Looking out towards the garden shed. |

Looking out over the entrance
and picnic table |
 |
grain was fed into the hopper
from upper floor. |
 |
Winch used to move the massive mill
stones - it was balanced so that
2 men could easily move it! |
 |
The mill stones had to be re-chisled by hand, each had a distinctive
pattern to its overlapping gooves, kind of like quilt patterns! |
 |
Massive gears turned the
central shaft of the windmill |
 |
Some kind of sifting box, and
another view of the massive gears |
 |
Photos of it being transported to its present location.
This mill has been moved at least 3 times! |
 |
| How it works. Mom left this one so woo can biigify it & read it! |
Wooah-oh... I hear thunder, gotta go!
Hope woo enjoyed your View of the WindMoo (ha-woo woo!)
Toodle-woo,
Miss Moo
