Weathervane

Tom, One of Harry Murphy's last wishes was for a replica Zeek as a weather-vane on the top of his house. Harry researched the Zeek history extensively and reported it in NFFS Digest. He truly loved the bird. Harry passed away but wife Phylis fulfilled the dream -- sort of. She pulled out what she thought was a Zeek drawing and had a metal fabricator replicate it and mount it on the cupola of the house. Foiled again -- the plan was that of a Megow Ranger. I'm sure Harry would be very delighted just the same. My son, Gil Jr., went to Murphy's house in Anderson, IN on Memorial Day and took these telescopic shots. No one was home. Something every modeller with a house needs to have! Gil
