There’s something special about bringing a piece of history back home.

The windmill that once stood tall on Sulak Road in Wallis has officially been given new life. Taken down and carefully restored as an Austin County Fair Ag Mechanics project, this 1932 Aermotor windmill became our daughter's year-long labor of love.

She didn’t just restore a windmill, she learned the entire restoration process from the ground up. Every bolt, every blade, every detail was part of the journey.

Now, her windmill stands proudly once again, installed at a home on FM 1952 in Wallis, returning this historic windmill to its hometown where it belongs.

We are so grateful for the support, encouragement, and belief in her throughout this project. Thank you for cheering her on and supporting her hard work. Seeing this beauty turning again in Wallis makes it all worth it.

Restoring another windmill in Wallis, TX and with it, restoring a piece of family history.

This windmill has stood watch over this homestead for generations. Bringing it back to life isn’t just about fixing what’s worn… it’s about honoring the land, the memories, and the legacy.

Some things are worth preserving.
