Nice!

The white box on the wall behind the CB's instruments is the inverter that converts the energy generated by solar panels into AC power for use in the house.

Hope that counts.

Bonneville Dam area, Columbia River

Bonneveill Dam...produces 1,227 megawatts, which the internet says enough to power 900,000 homes

There are 14 dams on the Columbia, 11 in the U.S. and 3 in Canada, 1,243 miles / 2000 kilometers long. It's a beautiful river.

Good day for photography!

Lots of wind farms just an hour plus east, on the dry side of Oregon and Washington. There are some areas that it's mile after mile of turbines, as far as the eye can see...and the eye can see pretty far at times. I saw one turbine once that had been burned, and it was blackened at where the blades come together. The grasslands around the turbine had been burned too. It made me wonder if the fire was caused by the turbine. Could have been a coincidence.

It is a beautiful river, and I look forward to riding along side it again sometime soon!

Today’s ride took me to a CPV Valley facility:
