| Huge Forest of Giant Wind Turbines Near Palm Springs In Southern California |
Palm Springs is about 120 miles southeast of Los Angeles. In touring various points of interest in southeast
California in the last week of October 2006, when we were traveling on Interstate Highway 10 or on Highway
62 near Palm Springs, we were delightfully surprised to see a huge forest of modern gigantic wind turbines
spreading over very large areas as shown on this web page.

It was an absolutely wonderful experience for me to see such huge array of towers of gigantic wind turbines
spreading over such big areas to generate electric power from the wind, a sustainable renewable energy
source.
