Here's a Corey fire hydrant dated 1895, the hydrant goes below ground about 3 feet and it's a beast to move when I change my mind where I want it. Everyone always wants to know if it's still working, nope just for looks and the dog to enjoy.

Yes, this is similar to the one that I have posted! Since snow covers my item's present location, I am still awaiting word from the land's owners if I may get it or not.
If I do get it, I will refinish the hydrant, and will post a photo.
Your refinished item looks great, and will be an inspiration to me when/if I obtain mine!
Thanks for your comment and love of my submission, too!
Glad you like and hope your able to get yours.
Yes, that hydrant is very nice, and I will let you know if I get mine! Thanks, and have a Grreat 2013!!!
