Iowa Wind Engery
I saw these on our way back to Iowa for Thanksgiving, but grabbed some photos while back for Christmas. According to MidAmerican Energy there are 67 turbines in the Walnut, Iowa area. Here’s a panorama of that area near the Wings truck stop on I-80.
There is another area you pass by along I-80. It is a surreal feeling driving by these massive things. These are much larger then the older turbines I have seen and the amount of them is impressive. The surprising thing is that none of these were here the last time we went to Iowa the year before.

So cool, I just had a similar experience driving through central Kansas and wrote about it over on http://www.abureuben.com
Suppose Nebraska will ever get a clue?

Hey Paul! I hope NE starts this soon, it seems plenty windy sometimes! It is nice to see this happening in other places. Nice video on your site, it is cool to see them all turning.
