Ye Olde Grist Mill #3 - Limited Original of 250
A Limited Original of 250
The Glade Creek Grist Mill located in Babcock State Park, WV, was created by combining parts and pieces from three mills which once dotted the state. The basic structure of the mill came from the Stoney Creek Grist Mill which dates back to 1890. It was dismantled and moved piece by piece to Babcock from a spot near Campbelltown in Pocahontas County, WV. After an accidental fire destroyed the Spring Run Grist Mill near Petersburg, Grant County, only the overshot water wheel could be salvaged. Other parts for the mill came from the Onego Grist Mill near Seneca Rocks in Pendleton County, WV.
This is one of the most photographed scenes in the country. There was a time when I didn’t photograph what everybody else was doing, but then it came to me that maybe everybody else has done it, but I never have, and it’s never been photographed at that moment in time, nor will it ever be again. Capturing that moment was almost secondary to the peace and serenity that I experienced that glorious fall morning.
