Some aren't so white anymore, and apparently haven't spun for years. Last week, my wife and I drove by this windmill farm near the southern tip of Hawaii. This pic was taken back in 2000, and the windmills are even uglier now. Support columns are badly rusted, several of the remaining blades are broken in half, and only one of the windmills on the farm was spinning (halfheartedly) despite a heavy wind. No fancy neighborhoods nearby - just a major eyesore on an otherwise beautiful drive down to the southernmost tip of the USA.
