Wild Horse Wind Farm





Maybe because it was Earth Day, I felt obliged to pay homage to hydroelectric dams and wind turbines. It probably didn't make up for the carbon footprint of today's 500-mile road trip! I drove up to the visitor's center, although it had closed at least an hour earlier, and I had the hilltop all to myself. The view of the windmills was spectacular in the late afternoon light. The only sound, besides a few birds, was the slow whoosh=whoosh-whoosh of the blades turning.
