A few years ago, a large wind farm was built close to my farm. I noticed a lot of building materials that had been used to ship the wind turbine parts were being discarded. So, I went through the site dumpster and found enough wood to build a 12-by-16-foot cozy cabin with a 20-by-8-foot porch, and a bathroom area with a solar shower.
