Windfarm ~ Ellensburg day 4

Ellensburg, honestly the county of Kittitas has had Windmills put up around the borders of the valley because Ellensburg and Kittitas are know for their wind. I know their was a lot of different opinions about the wind-farm. But I saw it as a adding a beauty to the place. Take my picture from the last post, it just seemed to ad some thing to the skyline and helps with our energy needs. Well we went up to the small visitors center before we left Thursday and it was fun. Oh and Windy. Normally they will take you into a windmill to see the turbines but because the wind was over 50 miles an hour for safety reasons we didn't get the chance. Well it give us an excuse to go back. The boys loved playing in the wind, even Colby.


Colby really had to push against the wind to keep walking.
