Yesterday we had the opportunity to go on an hour long field trip to Yates Mill.. We'd only been there once to hike around so it was great to hear all of the history behind it.
Reece....gotta remember to not let him sit on the ground anywhere! This kid and piles of dirt!
The kids loved seeing this gentlemen use an old machine to take the corn off the husk...
They even turned on the water for us..
A highlight was actually going inside the mill. Here Lindsey is inside looking out at the water wheel that you see in the picture above.
Inside the visitor building they have periodic dress up clothes as well. Leave it to Reece to get into that! It was a gorgeous day and we ended our tour with a picnic on the grounds. Great time was had by all!
