Irrigator in Kansas ...

irrigator

Photo-A-Day #34 05/12/05

As I was making my way back from the Smoky Hill Bison Co. I saw this device in a field, it looked pretty interesting. I think it is either for irrigation or maybe for fertilizing or spreading seeds. I honestly do not know what this does but it looked interesting and I can only speculate at the use.

Updated 01/02/06: E-mailed to me by a Kansas native.
“Its an irrigator. The other end of it is hooked to a high pressure well.

When the pressure is turned on, it causes the whole device to move one way or another. Some are allowed to go in circiles, some have a set area.

There is a post at either end of its range. It will hit the post, stay for a few minutes, then reverse direction.

They normally don’t move very fast…rarely over 1mph.”

The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station.

Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
