I got pictures from the side of the road and from the driveway, but I just couldn't find a good spot to show you this place the right way. I keep saying that because it was so frustrating. From farther down the road it looks wonderful, but pictures don't seem right from there either.
I found this place on my way from Sioux City, Iowa to Ponca, Nebraska. I wish I knew why all the windmills are there. It's possible the explanation is on one of the signs, but I seem to remember that there was nothing. I guess that makes it a mystery... For now.
I never found such unique things back in Michigan, but then I never really got to explore so much when I was there. I still wish I could go back and see what's there as well, but I've been having such fun finding new things here. Things like a bunch of windmills may not be for everyone, but they certainly are for me.
I've been kind of sick for the past week so I haven't been out on any new adventures. I'll have another post when I can get some more pictures. I hope that's kind of soon. Maybe I'll look for some birds right around here, or something like that. I haven't done that in a while. I'll think of something. Talk to you later.
Cool find my friend
ReplyDeleteI really couldn't believe what I was seeing when I drove past it for the first time.
DeleteNow this is really interesting. It does look like some sort of museum. As much as I tend to just recall the traditional design, there must have been others. People are very inventive. I'll look forward to more about this.
ReplyDeleteSome of the windmills look really strange. I keep wondering if they may have been used for some different reasons.
DeleteThat is very strange looking! But interesting! I wonder why all those windmills are there too.
ReplyDeleteI hope to find out one of these days why they are there.
DeleteI'm sure there are people who collect such things...I guess you found them! That was a cool find, Ratty.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it may just be a collector. I never would have thought someone would collect windmills, but there they are. I kind of wish I could collect something so big.
Deletebeautiful, I agree with you, indeed it looks like a windmill museum.
ReplyDeleteIt would be fun to get the story on some of the more unique windmills if it is a museum.
DeletePretty awesome Ratty. There's a lot of ingenuity in these photos. You live in such an interesting area!
ReplyDeleteThis area is much more interesting than I ever would have thought. I'm glad to be here.
DeleteA windmill museum. It is cool.
ReplyDeleteIf there is a windmill museum here, then maybe there are other cool things like it around here. I hope so.
DeleteVery interesting, Ratty. Is it really windy in that area? Maybe they generate electricity. There's an area in northern CA that, also, seems like
ReplyDeletea windmill nursery, with dozens of them dotting the landscape.
It can be very windy around here with all of the flat land. We do have windmills around here that generate electricity, but I don't think any of these do. They are just a collection of old ones. We have a big electric wind turbine just up the road from where I live.
DeleteThe windmills are quite bizarre...I am now wondering what they are for so I do hope you find out and tell us.
