We're going Green!


Well we're trying. This is a solar powered windmill. Unfortunately, its expensive to put in a solar power windmill - Hollywoods want to build something in order to move the solar panels around the ranch to different windmills. Some of the windmills are electric, some are powered by generators and some rely on the wind. Of course, with electricity and generators there is more of a guarantee that you have water provided you don't have a water leak, busted float, busted pipeline....

What a great deal of dedication and commitment it will take to make your wells all solar powered. In the end though you will be so happy for your effort. Kudos to you all. We are totally electrically dependent. And that fact does bite us on occasion.

Okay don't you need to put some panels around that or something? Our cattle would have it broke off and on the ground! Solar windmills are a topic around here too. Let us know what you think.
