Probably used the windmill as a pump at some point.

Nice picture, it brings back old memories. I spent almost a year in Christmas Valley in 1964-65 working on a transmission line survey. I was the only single guy with a new car within 50 miles πŸ€£πŸ™„πŸ€£

It's the Fort Rock Museum and they brought the gas pump in fairly recently to add to their collection. If you haven't gone in the buildings and looked at their collection you should.

We were there in the off season so the museum was closed.

Very cool but very odd photograph. Even aside from the monochrome plus red - How and why a gas pump?

Earnest,

When traveling we attempt to use the "blue roads" and seek out old structures. So many abandoned structures are being destroyed by wild fires that more photographers need to make an effort to record these historical sites.
