Growing up on a ranch in Texas, we had windmills to pump water for the cattle in the remote pastures. (Despite my father's innate stinginess, we used a gynormous diesel pump for the house and main headquarters area.) Has anyone on the BI tried windmills to raise water from catchment to an elevated tank? I haven't seen any, even in the ranching areas in Kohala. Seems like it would work well in some areas, and one could overcome calm periods with stored water or a small backup powered pump.
