Wind turbines are going up about 30 crow miles away. Very many of them, I can see all their lights blinking on my once completely dark horizon in the middle of nowhere. Some family has been fighting them.
I keep getting a direct mailed ad for a solar farm type deal, got two last week, all from the same place. They say they pay up to $1250/acre/year. "20-40 year lease available" innovativesolarfarms.com (not linked on purpose, but that's the address) They say they need those large transmission lines, which those haven't been installed yet but will be soon, "they" took 8 acres of mine as it passes by one corner (I'm not supposed to have any tower leg on my property, just the easement clips me, and the map looks like one leg of one tower might be in the fence line).
I have a few hundred acres the panels could go on, but my guess is it wouldn't happen, and probably a scam of some sort. Things like the power lines going in, almost thinking it's turning citi-fied out here, despite the closest two stoplights being 30 miles away.

Guess I wouldn't mind something legit paying a fee, getting used to seeing "things" around, would be less work than cows, getting kinda tired of them with the weather and everything going on anyway....

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
