Last ones! Something you don't see everyday!

So we're heading out of Worthington, MN and find ourselves held up by a very large Tube. Hmmm.

 

Upon closer inspection it appears to be part of a windmill....!! Apparently the driver was having a hell of a time trying to get it onto the approach to the interstate!!! He'd creep forward ... aaaaand back. Forward forward forward.... aaaaand back!! Took us a wee while to get out of town, but we had Muddy Buddies so we were happy travelers and content to watch and wait!

 

And later.. along the highway somewhere I came upon THIS !! A windmill vane!!! Those things are loooooooong and very flexible. A little startling when you are trying to drive past 'em at speed! :D
