An Afternoon at the Wind Farm

My family took a trip to a local wind farm. We took school bus shuttles up a long gravel road to get there. The bus had a hard time climbing it.

They wind turbines were huge and pretty quiet.

There were a lot of people there. We waited in line to get a look inside the base.

It had a ladder that went all the way to the top, and a hole in the floor where there was even more equipment.

There was also a pretty view of the lake and the island where I live.

It was really cool.

A video showing the shadows of the blades and you can hear some noise from fans in the control room (not the blades themselves)
