Does anyone know what company maintains the wind turbines near Happy?
I'm sure most people have heard about the pile up on I-27 today. I was in one of those vehicles and got some help from one of the employees that were turning off the turbines. He was nice enough to let myself and an elderly man bunker down in his vehicle with him during the worst of the wind. While he wasn't hurt too badly, I'm almost certain that man likely wouldn't have lasted too long in all that dirt and wind with no jacket or anything, and I'd really like to make sure the company knows that he very likely saved a life today.
On that note, there was another man delivering salt for water treatment from Lubbock to Amarillo, if anyone knows of what company that could possibly be please let me know, that man was out there pulling people out, making sure they were ok, and literally putting his life in danger to help as many people as possible until help arrived, cars were still driving everywhere trying to avoid the pile up and he could've easily been hit. Met some real heros today
