Last night I was almost asleep in my chair when the wind really came up! It was REALLY blowing and then I heard a LOT of racket.... It brought me up out of my chair totally freaked out! Then as I woke up more I thought it must have been just because I was almost asleep and that had made it sound worse than it was because it was over pretty fast.... Then at noon today Myron asked me " Did you see what the wind did last night?" I went out behind the garage and THIS is what I found! We are so thankful that it was away from the house. It landed on a tractor that Myron was getting ready to overhaul and sell... NOW we need to replace the glass in the cab :O/

Adair Turbines
Fourth of July Myron and I made a trip to see his dad. On the way we drove by MANY wind turbines that were in the process of being erected. We decided to stop and take a look. We both are very facinated by them.
This first picture is one that was taken a few weeks ago. This will help you see the finished product so that you can see the pieces all put together.
The pieces were laying around separately so we can see the size of each piece. I tried to get Myron beside each piece so you can see how BIG they are.
I don't know the names of the pieces, so bare with me....
This is the piece that the blade fit into...
This is the tail and main base for the blades
