Pincher Creek (Day 2)

We had breakfast at the Heritage Inn today.  Originally, it was supposed to be just Eric working, but they made a last minute change yesterday and included Kun Joo and I for today's shoot.  Cha-ching!
You don't see this too often, wind turbines and cows together!  LOL!
There's a large Hutterite community in Pincher Creek and most have them have allowed energy companies to install these large wind turbines on their land.  The companies pay them $20 000 for the initial installation, followed by annual royalty cheques (relative to the amount of energy produced by each device).  Installation and maintenance of the wind turbines are all taken care of by the power companies.  It's a pretty good deal!  ;-)
So, this is the inside of my room at the Super 8.
It's not bad,
but this is a room at the Ramada!  Kun Joo's got it good.
Since we had a quick work day,
we took advantage of the hotel's swimming pool!
We had lunch at Luigi's again.  LOL!
Remember what I said about the wind turbines earlier?
They're everywhere!
Just imagine how much money they making for the land owners.  ;-)
They're set for life!  :-)

Check it out!
A deer!
She was just grazing in front of our hotel.
Natasha eventually scared it off by trying to pet it.
Kind of reminds of the opening credits of "Northern Exposure".  ;-)
Huh, I guess it's raining over there.
I caught the sunset again,
but got eaten alive by mosquitos in my attempt.
More wind turbines!
