Windmills

For some reason, over the past few years, I've become fascinated by windmills (wind turbines). You know...those big things that sit in farmers' fields. Yes, the ones that most "normal" people think are ugly. I think they are so cool. Everytime I make a trip down I-35 into Iowa or along I-80 near the Iowa/Nebraska border, I just watch out the window, looking into amazement trying to figure out how they convert wind into energy. This past weekend we drove along I-35 and I-80 and got some up close views of them.
