Chicago III - there and back

Northern Indiana has developed an energy alternative in Wind Farms. From the interstate you can see hundreds, probably thousands of these enormous wind catches that convert to energy. It is an amazing and somewhat futuristic looking scene.

We have seen the propellers being transported before - takes an extra long truck - but appears the bases are made on site and then the propellers lifted up onto the base.

On the way back from Chicago we stopped into the little town of Kouts, Indiana. Not much going on in Kouts, Indiana!

Kouts Liquors and Kouts Gift Shop and More. That was about it for kouts. One stop light...but it was flashing :)
