I'm editing this fourteen years later so I don't recall the date but the shot was taken on 04JUL10. We wanted to take a drive over to the wind turbine farm in Portland.

Let me tell ya, these things are a whole lot bigger than you think and when you stand at the base of one, the immensity of the tower is quite something.

Plus, the prop blades make this very loud "whooshing" sounds as they pass by and the generator up top has a noticeable hum.
