The wind farm out by us has been cranking out electrons for some time now, but I wanted to close the loop on my ongoing and long-overdue windmill updates. We were out that way this evening and the light was decent, so I snapped a couple of shots.
Looking north-west from highway 17 between Sparland and highway 40. If you squint you can see windmills way off in the distance, all quietly cranking away.
Well, not perfectly quietly. If you get right up next to one you can hear the blades slicing through the air, a low, rhythmic whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, like waves breaking on a beach. Here's the view from the base.
