One of my earliest
memories is sitting on the pier at Pt. Burwell, on Lake Erie fishing
with my dad. Today as I stand on the same pier with my wife Jane of
24 years (who used to fish on the same pier with her dad when she was
young) all we can see now are massive Wind Turbines lining the
horizon down the coast...
A lot has changed over the
last 40 years. Renewable energy, what used to be a distant vision for
Jane and I is steadily encroaching on all of our lives. There is no
denying it, wind and solar power is here to stay.
The beginning of our life together?
I remember it like it was yesterday.
That warm spring day in May of 1984 when I first met Jane. I knew
that day that I had found 'the one' I had been searching for, that we
would spend the rest of our lives together. It would forever be 'Les
and Jane', not just Les anymore...
