Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't grunge. At first I just listened to Where’s Summer B? on endless repeat, then expanded to the whole album.

Sentinels of the Prairie in Jackson, NE. Visiting was my 21st anniversary gift from my husband.
A windmill with yellow vanes in the background. In the foreground, a sign with white words on a green background reading:
SENTINELS OF THE PRAIRIE
You are viewing one of the finest collections of VINTAGE WINDMILLS in the entire Midwest. This collection consists of different mills that existed from the 1880s through late 1930s. Weights used in this display are reproductions. This display was made possible by the Leonard Gill family of Jackson. They realized the importance of preserving a very precious and important part of our rural heritage. 
Most of these old mills are from the Howard and Barvetta McLain collection of Carroll, NE. They spent countless hours searching the entire Midwest to find the iron parts. Many of the mills have parts from 4 to 5 different like mills. Some parts had to be recast. Restoration was done by Marvin Baker of the Pender, NE area. Marvin is an excellent craftsman and he also made the wood towers. 
Take your time to view and enjoy these mills. They are VERY VERY RARE.

A grayscale day here in SoCal. Just a peep of blue from the Aquarium.
A cloudy grey sky and a mist-shrouded Port of Long Beach. Everything in the picture is a shade of grey: sky, water, cranes, road and buildings. One splash of blue in the lower left is the Aquarium of the Pacific.
