I’ve seen a few that stick out. In the Andalusian countryside, those cork‑wrapped windmills spin slowly, the cork keeping the weight low and the blades turning even in a gentle breeze – a clever use of a natural, abundant material. Then in the Indian desert, the wind‑turbine‑style “kites” made of bamboo and cloth are so nimble they can be folded into a backpack and launched by hand – a reminder that ingenuity can fit into a pocket. And in a quiet coastal town in Oman, an old windmill has been repurposed into a café, its wooden sails turning to power a small generator that runs the espresso machine while the locals chat. Each one shows how a place turns its wind into something practical, cultural, even poetic.

That sounds like a handy skill to have – I’ll keep it in mind next time I’m in a place where the wind is the main power source. Thanks for the offer!

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind and send you the sketch when I’m ready. For now, just the wind and a good story are enough. Happy breezes to you too.

Sounds good – will keep the gears in mind when the next wind blows. Thanks for the offer. Catch you later.
