This is my first effort since being home from Madrid. The wind farms of Illinois are quite impressive, stretching on for miles. If you stand at one end of the farm outside of Bloomington and look toward the other, it goes as far as the eye can see. If you've had the chance to visit the prairie state then you know that's pretty far. Another interesting thing about wind farms is that they are built right on top of existing farms. The corn and soybeans grows right up to the about 10' from the base.
