Hi All,

Took an early morning trip last weekend to one of my favorite spots 
around my neck of the woods. Glade creek mill as you may know from one 
of my previous posts is located about 1 1/2 hours east of Charleston, WV 
in Babcock State Park. It looks old because it is. But it has only been 
on this site since 1976. It actually is a composite from 3 different 
mills brought to the park and assembled at the location of a no longer 
existing mill. The mill is operational and is open every day of the week 
grinding flour for all to see. Last weekend as luck would have it the 
mill was down because of  low water. I have a few digital shots of the 
interior that I will post later.
