Silo heaven or haven! Maybe some diamonds up the page... Wow.
That topless "tub" of a silo is just that! 24' perhaps!

View attachment 101743I purchased some fenders from this residence. While the current owner never milked or filled silo here guessed the large silo at 24’. More like a tub.View attachment 101744

That is a tub. What a job to level that before you seal it with plastic for a couple months.

Me too but that page in history has been turned. Fun to look back on though.

Just like many things of our youth. Playing hockey outside in the cow yard, 2 cylinder tractors, muscle cars, riding bicycle to the neighbors, visiting relatives and on and on and on.

The silo on the right is just a big rain gauge

I wouldn't want the fuel bill for heating that house.

Thanks for the great photos- a lot of nice former dairy farms. It's good to see a lot of the barns have good or new roofs.

To think of the hay that would fill those barns, along with the silage acres that it would take! Such a testament to greatness!

Wonder if any of those are still in use? That that yard site with the Herd King might still use the stave. There are a few silos here in Alberta and I check out any that I see to see if any are still used. I saw one 20 x 90 Harvestore being filled when I passed by otherwise out of 100 or so that I have seen, I can't say that any others have been used recently.
