I love these guys! I remember the first time I rode through the town of Marionville, MO, and saw the "HOWDY tanks" as they're affectionately known. They line up along the roadside, when you drive into town on the main highway. I think they either held kerosene, or diesel fuel at one time. They're almost as well known as the white squirrels (which also occur in Red Bud, Illinois.)
A few years back the tanks were to be removed. There was such a hue and cry, that the tanks not only were left standing, but repainted! Here's how they looked just a few weeks ago.
Doesn't that just make you feel good???!!
