I have never seen a wind turbine in person until Wednesday. These things are HUGE! I got a really good idea of their size based on one out in a pasture. There were Black Angus standing near the base and they looked like little black bumps.

Wait till you see them hauling a blade for one of them things down the highway
I did, pretty impressive rig. I bet the turning radius blows on that. 10
or 12 axles on the trailer. Hard to count axles when you are blowing by at 89 mph. It was sitting in an equipment lot off the interstate.

There were several wind turbines missing all 3 blades and some were not turning at all.

How’d you like to make that climb up there to service it 😂
 
I flew to Oslo, Norway for Pride Day. I’m sure many of you wish you were here. Mighty Vikings with their rainbow flags have really fallen far.
 
Lol, opened up my phone and this is the first story I see on FB. View attachment 178044
Looked it up

According to Maryland State Police (MSP), troopers responded to I-70 West, near Interstate 81, just after 5 a.m. There, they learned that a tractor-trailer had been hauling a windmill blade west on I-70 when the blade became loose.

The blade then ended up across the center median, blocking the eastbound lanes, according to state police.

Well dang- that just ruins it! I thought it flew off and landed there- and only hurt one person

Yeah, when I saw your post I was thinking, ok, how’d it end up there? Did it fall off the windmill? Looked to intact for that, so I started looking for the reason it was there…. 😂😂
Would have been a cooler story if it had fallen off the windmill though!
