As winter approaches and activity on the farm slows down, I take this opportunity to introduce a new feature “Thingamajig Thursday.” This feature will challenge you by showing a photograph of part of an object or a close-up of a common farmstead object. Your job is to guess. Put your guess is a comment. I’ll give you the answer as soon as someone guesses it or the following Thursday.

I’ll start out kind of easy for the first week.

The answer is the frostless outdoor hydrant handle. Here’s a full-size view.
