Well guys, I present to you my ceiling fan sightings! Let's start off with 2013.
Summer trip of 2013.
Well, the first sighting of this trip was in a small hick town called Beatty Nevada. I decided to stop by the local museum, and even though these are only Wal-Mart fans, I though the installation by itself was cool enough to takes pictures of:
Next, we headed to Utah, and stopped to eat. I saw another cheapo Wal-Mart fan and also a six-bladed Encon at a local, small-town restaurant. Please excuse the poor lighting:
The next day, I saw these at another local restaurant. The first one is a West Winds builder fan that looks to be from the 90's. The second one was a newer Royal Pacific builder fan that was probably a replacement to a West Winds that was installed prior:
After that, I headed over to St. George, Utah and saw some much cooler fans! The first were some Hunter Oasis' at a gas station:
Next stop Boise, Idaho where I saw three Hunter Coastal Breeze's at a audio/video store:
Afterwards we drove over to Washington state. I spotted a little thrift store, and decided to go in. There were three fans, a Hampton Bay Tiffany Perl, some other crappy Hampton bay I forget the name of (the one with saggy blades) and a Hunter Eclipse:
The day after, we headed to a small Bavarian-themed town called Leavensworth. It was really quite a cool place, with some awesome fans! Starting with this Encon(?) in a restaurant I passed by. Sorry about the awful lighting:
Jet King?
Hunter Mayfair's:
Early Hunter Brighton "5-minute" fan:
GE-Vent fan at a bookstore. Winco?
And last but NOT least is undoubtedly one of my better fan sightings, a Hunter Original in Classic Black:
Autumn trip of 2013.
My first sighting was a Hampton Bay Cameron in the breakfast room of a hotel in Prescott, Arizona:
Later that morning, we decided to take a walk around the historical downtown of Prescott, which made for a lot pretty neat sightings:
Hampton Bay St. Claire II in the lobby of a historic hotel:
Toastmaster(?) in the hotel office:
Two of the rooms were being cleaned, so I managed to snap these picture of the fans inside. They look just like the one in the lobby:
Some cool lighting that I noticed as well:
Hampton Bay Pearl's in a shop:
68" Hampton Bay Altura in an art gallery that was way too big for the space!
HD Supply builder fan that clearly, some redneck installed:
A duet of Hampton Bay Wellston's in a small shop (the space was rather small, so it probably didn't need two):
Hampton Bay Cameron Plus in a bar:
Hampton Bay Glendale's (cheaper versions):
Harbor Breeze Builder's Series/Classic Style in an office that was for lease:
In a souvenir shop, there were four of these gray 90's builder fans with mismatching light kit's:
And a Hampton Bay Lydhurst that replaced one of them:
Another bar had about five of these SMC F52's:
Poor Hunter Mayfair
At a jewelry shop, these were three fans
Emerson Friction Drive missing blades:
Another Emerson Friction Drive also missing blades:
Outdoor builder fan of sort (probably a replacement to a Friction Drive):
A gas station had about six of these 68" Hampton Bay Altura's:
After we explored Prescott for a little while, we decided to head to a little town called Jerome, Arizona. Apparently, it is America's only inhabited ghost town. The place is very historic, with some pretty old buildings.
The first sighting was probably one of the most unique ceiling fans I have ever seen...EVER!
Closeup of the motor:
Craftmade CXL in a dimly lit shop:
This place was closed, but yet the fan (Hampton Bay Tripoli) was still running:
Crappy Hampton Bay Clarington in a New Age shop:
Hunter Something (I forgot the model):
Alaska's?:
Hampton Bay Quick Connect in another New Age shop:
Generic hugger:
Murray Fiess?
Hunter Summer Breeze:
There was this Ladina in a shop that was closed:
Later that day, we headed over to Sedona, Arizona. When we got there, we headed out to eat, and found this little Mexican restaurant. Inside, there was seven Hampton Bay Glendale's (cheaper versions):
Garbage fans deserve garbage pictures:
Two Hampton Bay Huntington II's in a shop that was for lease:
Later that evening, we went to explore around Sedona and came across a little art village:
Hunter in an artisan shop:
Unfortunately, most of the shops and galleries were closed, so we went again the next day.
Two Hampton Bay Umber's installed outside under a walkway:
Mote Carlo Home Owners Select in an art gallery:
This last one is actually from Jerome, Arizona (just like the last trip, I thought I might as well save the best for last) This fan sighting was actually kind of an accident because I saw fan blades in a dimly-lit bar I was walking by and decided to take a picture. After later review, I realized I had taken a picture of a Westinghouse Sidewinder! Unfortunately, lighting was quite bad that the picture is far from good quality
