Silo for Saturday

[db4600]

Once was proud moment, but now just acts as a rain gauge on this horse ranch on the south bank of The North Fork of The Crow River

Reminds me of the silo we used to have by our old barn... both gone now.

What are the chances that will still be standing in a hundred years, barring someone demolishing it? Glazed brick.

There was one here with a good roof. It was in good shape. I took it down. There's one at the neighbors without a roof. The tiles are popping apart. I assume water is getting in them, then freezing, and so on.

Dad had a 70X16 Dickey clay silo. The top 10ft had no chute. It was fun to climb to the top to hang the pulley to pull up the blower pipe. Filled to the top it would settle 8ft. Thanks for the memorys, LVP

The old clay silo is being replaced by a steel bulk bin.
