	There is Linda & Larry's rig next to *Red Rover*. The Double Nickel let us use two sites to hold our rig.
	During a morning walk, we had a sighting. We have never seen the rotor blades from the new style windmills. We could not have imagined that they were so large. Not only were the rotor blades large, these special trucks were carrying two each.

	The first truck had a problem clearing the road signs and light post on the far side of the road. Not only did the truck have to back up, the driver had to steer the wheels under the trailer to make the turn.
	The second truck tired to swing the turn farther by coming across the road before turning.

	Truck three, after watch the first two trucks, tried a different approach. Truck three pulled across the road onto the on-ramp road.
	Then truck three using trailer wheel steering, backed the rig onto the road.
