Looks like you had a fun (if slightly tricky) expedition! I'd sure like to see a wind farm up close! Saxbophone (talk) 13:32, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

Thank you!
It was real fun. I was recovering from a cold and it was nice to do something outside after two days of low activity.
Regarding wind farms, this area is full of them. They're nice to see up close, but it's also undesirable at night, when the lights they have (to avoid aircraft flying on to them) cover part of the sky and spoils the view. Gormaz (talk) 14:18, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
No problem, that's a great way to blow away the cobwebs as we say in the UK, a bit of fresh air and exercise after being inside for a bit.
Are the wind turbines noisy when you're up close to them? Saxbophone (talk) 17:56, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
Hahaha. Never heard that expression before, but I'll make sure to remember it.
Yes they are. It's a deep sound, so it isn't annoying and it decreases quite fast when you leave the windmill behind. Gormaz (talk) 21:34, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
