525

It is Sunday mid-morning and the GPS reports that there are 525 miles left of my journey.

There is no real reason for this post other than the fact that I am passing the largest wind farm I have ever seen! The fans stand on their immense pylons over the trees to the north and west (and east as I am passing them at this point) for miles.

As I pass them by, it strikes me how large these things are. I mean I have passed the blades being hauled on the back of extra-long trailers on the Interstate before, but these things tower above the forest, dwarfing the pines in the foreground.

Wherever you are today, I hope that you're being blown away by your surroundings!
