On the way to our property, from Calhan, this is our second closest neighbor. They moved in shortly after we did and plan to raise cattle on their 40 acres of land. Yes, that's a working water well windmill on the left, surrounded by a stock fence.
Windmills are quite prevalent out here due to our abundance of wind and lack of water.
We are also starting to see more electricity generating windmills out here too, due to their fairly short payback period of 3 to 4 years. This is another view of our neighbor to the South, from our front yard. The windmill and stock fence are on the right, with the house on the left. These cattle are owned by our neighbor to the West, 7R Ranch. This picture was taken from our driveway.
