yah im makin really good money (it helps alot with me being in college) and plus it really is an exciting job! i kinda have a sense of pride knowing im doing something that is really booming in america's economy as far as new forms of electricity to help w/ the fossil fuel situation! plus i work in real good company, have alot of great guys workin w/ me so that helps. today was fun, the wind was blowing pretty fast so it kinda made it interesting on the top of the turbine. yeah pirate those are the turbines along HWY 70 headin north to Sweetwater...i wanna say we have a turbine that isn't but 100 yds from the highway!
