In the town of Sandwich, just across the canal on Cape Cod, this windmill is visible to passersby. Normally, I just drive by with barely a glance but today, it looked good enough with the nearby cherry tree blossoming to get me to stop.

The blades turn but, I think they are driven by electricity since there doesn't seem to be enough surface area to catch the wind.
