All rights reserved.  Photographed in rural Browntown, Green County, WI, early one evening in July 2008.  Can you find all the wind turbines in Green County?  There are more than you might think there would be around here.  This one is located west of Clarno on Highway P heading towards Browntown.

Surprisingly, it is not rare to see hot air balloons in the air around Green County, Wisconsin during the summer.  In June, Monroe is even home to an annual hot air balloon rally.  This photo was taken last summer at the home of friends.  A balloon set down at the farm next door while we were enjoying an alfresco dinner party.  The wind turbine is a 10 kW Bergey our friends put up at their eco-destination B&B, Inn Serendipity.

Brenda, that is great!  There is a private venture wind farm out in a desolate part of our county.  I think that it is a great idea!

Teresa, Green County is developing a very strong base of eco-residents.  The more of us that live here, the more people like us are drawn to our area.

Lori and Tony & Darcy, we've had a wind farm go up about 20 minutes from here recently.  There are private turbines in the county too.  It is cool to see people relying more upon clean energy sorces.

Great photo-I love pictures of hot air balloons.  The wind turbine is pretty amazing to see too.
