<\/center>Upon hearing the news that Arlon Voge has sold Farmers Livestock and will be closing ‘er up after the 28th of the month, I had a disturbing thought. One news report said an adjacent piece of land was also sold as part of the deal, and I thought, “What if that’s the piece of land containing one of my favorite local windmills?” Gasp! So I figured it would be nice to go out and take some nice photos of it just in case.<\/p>\n
