The New Herrick News
"Hi" from Herrick, So.Dak.
 |
From 1997 to 2007, the New
Herrick News sent all the news that was good news out to 325
subscribers in 38 states, who still called Herrick
"home". The NHN featured local news
items, old photos and newsworthy vintage articles.
If an old photo surfaces or an interesting news
item occurs, we'll post it here.

hard to return our electric lines to pre-Christmas-blizzard status

Poles are UP
Poles are up between Herrick and Burke. This photo was
taken a few miles from Burke, looking toward
Herrick.
|
 |
Within days, lines are up on the poles. This photo is
taken from the same spot in the road, but facing Burke this
time.
|
 |
It took a lot of man hours, but they proceeded
quickly.
Here you can see the support cables that hold the pole in
place, but no electric wires are strung here yet.

Look Closely
This is tough to see, but it's interesting. The
big vertical line is an REA pole. The two smaller vertical
lines on either side of it are steel posts for the fence.
The horizontal wires just above the fence are our new REA lines,
tied at the base of this pole. It was nearing evening, and
work stopped here for the day.
