We saw these on a recent trip to Indiana. They were on a train - and there were LOTS of them - I only captured the last of them with my phone camera. It was a bit of a strange sight to pass all of these blades on a train - a place where they really do not fit. (Push the "play" button to see the video"
I am not sure how I feel about the windmills now populating the surrounding farm ground. I don't like the way they look, but I do find them intriguing. I am grateful for the jobs they have provided.
They are one thing to see from a distance, but a whole different thing to stand under one and listen to the "swishing" of the blades. It gives me a bit of vertigo to stand right at their base. They look robotic - sentinenals to progress. I wonder what the folks who farmed the ground 50 years ago would think about it.
