Its the house of a 280 meter windmill
Neat, thanks
Oh wow yeah that is pretty neat
Wind turbine*
My 5 year old does this to me every time I say windmill. I love home for it, but it sucks being an old fart.
What a coincidence, I'm also 5!
I’m a windmill.
I am younger but I love home too!
Is it pronounced 'wind' or 'wind'?
Actually, it is pronounced 'wind'.
Yes.
Technically 'wind' because you have to wind up the wind for the wind turbine to move.
Holy shit that's massive
That’s what she said
She as being polite.
It's also what he said.
Mills a lotta grain!
Since I got down vote, I looked it up. This must be the V236-15.0 MW. Color me surprised.
918.6 feet? I have doubts....I'd be surprised if it was over 300'. They are not very tall in Wisconsin.
It's an offshore wind turbine. They are way larger than onshore ones.
The rotor diameter alone is 236 meters.
