Giant propeller on road

On the way to the airport I passed some sort of enormous propeller being transported. I saw two trucks pulled over to the side of the road. Each truck was carrying one blade of the thing. The blades must have been over 50 feet long. I tried to grab a picture as I passed but startup time on the phone camera sucks and I was past before the camera was ready.

Part of a wind generator -- if you got west of Katy you would know that. ;-) TXU gets less than 1% of their power from wind, but they want to double that, now the coal plants have been shot down. In 3-5 years the lights are going to start going out in Texas...
