Windsock and its Environs Being Re-Configured |
In preparation of the desert season
the ranch windsock is going through its bi-annual make-over (that's
too many hyphenated-words).
Orange Glory can only last about two years in
the desert sun before she rips, fades, and turns into Old White
Glory.
Not only is a new windsock on order but helpful
visual indicators complimenting the windsock as well.
For the past few years a giant arrow made of
12 railroad ties has pointed to the windsock. But pilots have complained
the arrow doesn't stand out from the air. It blends in with the
landscape.
So these ties are now placed in a semi-circle
around-the-windsock-which-should-have-been-done-in-the-first-place.
The-ties-will-be-painted-bright-white.
