A Historic Missouri Mill Became The Centerpiece Of A Creekside Park Made For An Unhurried Afternoon

A three-story mill built in 1848 still grinds grain with creek power on select Saturdays. Its frame sits on hand-hewn, pegged timbers, and some of its limestone foundation holds up without mortar. I love that detail. Those old builders stacked rock so well that it has outlasted floods, a lost...
