Wind turbines...are they an eyesore or do they enhance the landscape like the old farm windmills? I kind of like them especially against a beautiful fall background. But still, not sure.

About Me
- cookielady
- I started this blog as a creative way to express my passions of cookies, family, friends, contemporary folk music, farmhouses gardening and cottage living. I am a Registered nurse and having worked at Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh ICU for 18 years I wanted a break from that stress and so began my quest to start a "cookie business" Beginning from our home, my husband, my sister & I began the company with chocolate chip cookies baked from scratch on a small Hobart 20 qt mixer. My husband & I raised 2 wonderful daughters who both worked in the business as children. Today we operate from a 2000 sq ft commercial location outside of PIttsburgh PA in Plum Boro. The company, Country Cupboard Cookies is growing and I have been finding myself busier and busier with the daily running a business issues. I found I needed to get back to my creative roots somehow. So here I am. Though I hope to also let people know about my cookie company through this blog, mainly I will write about life surrounding the business...family, friends, my roots from a farmhouse in Scottdale, Pa where I learned to bake, my love of cottages, gardens and COOKIES!!
I think when placed individually in rural areas, they have little negative impact. When placed together at high densities, they can become quite an eyesore!
ReplyDeletei much prefer seeing the turbines to clouds of sooty smoke, nuclear reactors and the like...i think using wind and water for power is nature at it's best, creating a better life for all of us...and i feel the same way about solar power.
ReplyDeletei look forward to seeing the huge white arms flailing in the wind everytime i head east over rt. 30...or go down around myersdale...and wonder why there aren't more of them?
