Ann - I have been thinking of turrets for years. There are many unused Butler Building steel round grain storage buildings around here. I think that a silo or other round storage building could be a nice way of achieving the turret that you covet.
So, did you go out and find a good condition silo? We could all have a Pink Party and paint it, what else, PINK.
Many a truth is said in jest--sprial staircases, easy to put in windows, hmmmmmmm.
