In retirement, I’ve taken up photography. My once pristine Eastern Washington is now visually polluted with countless turbines.
20 years ago had you built a house in many of the places these now are, you’d be stoned into submission by the tree huggers for blighting the open spaces.
They are not majestic. They are an eye sore.
On the other hand, old-school Dutch windmills are wonderful feats of engineering, I had the chance to go inside one there a few years ago.
They would never allow a drill rig...Went on a road trip...went down the Columbia river and what did I see Windmills...why they did not put them back a few miles is beyond me.
