Anybody ready to climb straight up for 100 feet? That's what the silo crew had to do this week. The silo roof had gotten smashed in by the force of the tornado back in June. We were waiting for the silo to get filled with silage before having the silo company come and fix it. They hooked all their supplies on long ropes and pulled up everything. When they took the dented roof sections off they let it down with the long rope. It was interesting to watch. Here are some pictures and a short video of them working.
Everybody ready for the answer to "how many truckloads of silage it took to fill the silo?" Well, they didn't get it quite full,(about 10 feet from the top) and it took approximately 100 truckloads to fill it. That was about 15 hours with 3 trucks going one after the other!
Isn't the sky beautiful? Blue is my favorite color!
