I know that wind farm well. It is in an area that gets more wind than any other place I have been. The day I took these pictures it was about -20 with zero wind. Bad day for a heat pump if you were counting on wind power.
It’s extremely windy over there! There should be more mills there, but the ones that are there don’t even spin..

I think it’s actually cool to see them off in the distance from 87.

There’s a huge project this summer in Ohio, they are bringing the windmills into the port of ogdensburg to be transported by truck, over to Ohio, gonna be a massive job.

Your nicer than me. I would have driven thru it and went after them for the damage to my truck. I may move myself but promised I'd give it a year to see if I can handle looking at it when they are within a mile. Windmills can be seen roughly 20 miles here on this flat land and I can see a strong 150 now but at a long distance. All those red lights flashing I hate. They will ruin my sunsets that I enjoy so much. Your right, they just dont get it, and likely dont care. Im glad Im not young quite often. That Maine hermit had the right idea, lol
