ok, Norwegian and Swedish folk music (neighbour countrys, almost the same language and culture) are in many ways very similar, so that's an answer that confirms my thought. Keep it up!

Yes my ancestors are 7/8 Swedish. But the music is all Norwegian or by the St. Olaf Choir because the school was founded by Norwegian immigrants in the 19th century.

Is the fiddeling music some Swedish/Scandinavian folk music? Sound like that, and your surname - Larson - sure is a typical Swedish name. Nice to be able to watch this structure get built up.

these turbines are immense, i work for vestas blades uk producing the wood/carbon blades for the v82, seeing and working on the blades everyday you forget just how big they are....but this video has put it back into persective...

They assemble just like the new floor lamp I bought, screw it together, and put in the light! On a more serious note, here in Wisconsin (USA), they've recently installed about 30-40 vestas turbines on the way to somewhere by fond du lac I think, and then there's another 40 or so to the east of that bunch, the whole projects have been completed in as little as 3-4 months.

This is it. They have another on order (or two) but if you have seen the one they have, this is how it got there.

Ooh I've seen a wind turbine next to the St. Olaf College campus. I wonder if that was it or if they built a new one??

Texas is NOT the leader in wind turbine technology. Denmark is. Vestas Wind Systems hold 23% of the market. In second place is Spain with Gamesa taking 12%. Germany (Siemens) is probably third. PERIOD!

Thank you for that. Very well done.
