Over the past 3 weeks I have seen wind farms in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan. Typically it was from the highway several miles from the farm. This past week I had the pleasure to visit one up close in Pigeon Michigan. They are monstrosities! Very big! Very high tech and futuristic in fact. Someone could shoot a scifi film around one and get away with it, seriously that's how it makes me feel. I expected to see Woody Allen pop out from behind one with a lightbulb in his mouth:) Here are a few photos from when they were installing these bad boys + link to all the photos from installation day below....
In the second photo, where the orange cones are located, is as close as I got to one. The size of them was still impressive. Then looking around and seeing 30+ of them just blows your mind. I got the same feeling when standing next to the Arch in St. Louis at the sheer size.
