Letter: Blocking views of countryside
Reader Bill Roberts writes on the landscape of our region

Sir, My Power Dream with apol-ogies to poets Mackellar and Wordsworth:
Am I dreaming: A sunburnt country, a land of sweeping plains, of ragged mountain ranges;but now there’s a line of giant power lines and deserted wheat fields; I wandered further lonely as a cloud, when all at once I saw a crowd, a host of wind turbines, floating as if in the breeze; block-ing my view of the countryside and the trees.
Bill Roberts, Bendigo
