They are huge. I was told each blade was delivered as an extra long Simi-truck load.
On a recent trip, we passed a convoy of semi-trucks, each loaded with one colossal segment of the tower. I think we saw at least 8 trucks, (no blades in the group). The photos are only a few inches tall, but believe me, these mills are giant.

Dear *gawd* are windmills pretty. I mean, nuclear energy is all well and good, and I hear grand things about solar, but wind power leads to some *gorgeous* structures.
Anyone who knows me knows I can't pass a windmill without a comment, lecture on simpler times, or waiting for me to take a photo which i like. I am guilty of all those things. The above photo is almost all in-camera as I have only adjusted the exposure down a little and cropped to a square. Yes, on a clear day, the skies out here are that blue.
