I used to go there as a child. The mill was gone ,but the bridge was still there. My grandmother used to drive her Cadillac across the single lane bridge. That was a treat for a little boy. I also remember that after a flood the bridge was closed to vehicle traffic. Teenagers and college students used to swim in the creek and jump off of the bridge. Then later the bridge was removed when the area was developed for housing and then the PARD took over the old mill site.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-73516613813146000852007-10-21T19:45:00.000-04:002007-10-21T19:45:00.000-04:00Hi Yolanda and Lina,Thanks so much for visiting.

I hope one day we can sip wine somewhere and meditate on who sat there before or maybe just get silly on wine and brie, and listen to JT on a portable stereo. <BR/><BR/>I don't think moonshine is in the cards although there was a time long ago and far away, in my lifetime that I . . . I'll leave it there since one of my uncles used to work for the NC SBI and later for the US ATF and during his career he broke up moonshine operations.

And think only of someone who was there in 1764 who didn't know about PCBs in fish or care how nutritious the wheat was that was ground there. Or that anyone would ever appreciate his simple life.<BR/>Appreciating doesn't mean that I would want to trade, though!<BR/>Someone once told me the time doesn't really move in a line, it is more of a spiral.

What bothered me is a short blurb I found online took the sentence about it being one of the oldest mill sites in Wake county and then said that the mill was built in 1908. Since that skipped the part about the first mill there being built before 1764 it leaves the wrong impression. Someone else mentioned they found it was reputed to be the first mill site but they questioned that since the first mill was constructed in 1908. And there you have the mythology springing up on the internet about a little known mill, ha. It did bug me.<BR/><BR/>Hi Sabine,<BR/>I know what you mean about it being hard to know what to eat. I find it very confusing and sometimes I feel like burying my hand in the sand.Carverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968919406427737503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-55859214624275663022007-10-16T23:35:00.000-04:002007-10-16T23:35:00.000-04:00Very nice post.
