Thanks everyone for your nice comments. There was a field of wind
generators I just liked the line of barn to the one. This old farm had
gone from producing hay to electric power. Each tower plus its service
road takes several acres of prime farmland out of production - a loss of
hundreds of bushels of corn every year per windmill. They also kill
eagles. But this plus ethanol production is becoming the Iowa mainstay.
Progress I guess. There are so many fields of windmills we have started
naming them. This is the Lundgren Wind Farm

Interesting contrasts. Are you implying that the wind generator shows 100
years of progress? At least the fence poles look 100 years old.

Coming out of delurk mode. Having not posted anything here for awhile I
offer this "bucolic scene" of Iowa farmland today.
I have been faithfully reading the group and admiring the droll profane
humor for which the group is richly famous/infamous . Oh & the many
great photos.
Your friend in the frozen mid-west.
