175 miles from my Door to Weatherford Oklahoma...been through there twice already this Year...once going to Pappy's...and then just last month when I went back to Upper Michigan....amn are they ever building the crap out of Wind Mills there ....somebody is getting rich!
gstoneberg:
Yes they are. One of them toppled over early on and they put one of the blades in a park in Weatherford. On one of my trips there I took pictures of it, I had no idea how big those windmills really are. For a change my phone took really nice pictures, that's my buddy in the hub, he's about 5'6".
Sorry for the hijack.
