New Wind Farm

The new Wind Farm that is being erected on the Lincoln/Ellsworth Co. line had their 320 tall Crane tip over. I rode down there today to see if I could get some pictures. The crane that tipped over was about a quarter of a mile west of highway 14 and I could see just a portion of it. From what I heard it was going down a steep hill with the boom up and it went over frontwards. That tall of a crane will be hard to replace and very expensive. Security was real tight and I couldn't find a way to get any closer. You can go to google and see the pictures I took.
