This morning I was glad to host the Bay Montessori School in a visit to see my wind turbine.  It was science week and the school decided to see how wind technology works in Saint Mary’s County.  Who knows, this visit from the schools may become a repeating event.

I figured I would update my status.  The turbine is ready to get erected, but now it is raining.  I have a crane ready to raise the tower, and as soon as the ground is not muddy and the crane will not get stuck, the tower will go up.  Here are pictures of the turbine:
