It is that time of the evening I suppose, so to wrap things up:
Porcupine Rim - Moab, Utah
Split Enz - Rotorua, NZ
Hero Trail - Bright, VIC
Air Ya Garn - Derby, TAS
Samurai Pizza Cat - Whistler Bike Park, Canadia
Ae Line - Dumfries & Galloway, Scotland (Part of the 7 Stanes network)

Questions are open to the floor - First in, best dressed and all that.
 
What is the purpose of the windmills that were built throughout the Netherlands (not talking about modern wind turbines)

Edit: I am looking for a use that is somewhat specific to the area, not uses common outside of the Netherlands like milling flour etc.

My FIL says it was to help drain off water from the flooded low laying areas.
