Mammoth Visiting Day 2 and 3

Wednesday and Thursday 7/15/2021

On Wednesday we worked and sat around. So much to say, so much to do...hardly.

 *Butterfly exhibit that identified my Great Spangled Frittilary yesterday.

 

 

On Thursday we got some free time, so we visited Hobbs State Park and saw the historic Van Winkle Family mill site. Not much to see--it's mostly an empty space in the woods with a few rusty iron pipes going to the creek. But a lovely walk in the woods and I heard a Wood Thrush in the distance.


War Eagle Mill has a cafe upstairs and a gift shop below. But still a nice old place. Only not so old. It was reconstructed in the 70s, I believe.

And this is the bridge that our Jeep crossed. Scary.
