We love going to Meeks Park in Blairsville.  We walk a 2 mile loop there; it's always in the shade, and not too steep a climb to the ridge line.  

 

Last year the park acquired this mill wheel from the Tates, and restored it.  Then they built this structure, and turned it into a museum.  It's right by the Nottely River that runs through the park.  I'll go to the museum and learn more about it so I can tell you.  

 

We went by there on Saturday, but it was closed.  Not really a museum, more of an interpretive center.  But I'll have to get back to you on it.  Maybe it will be open in the fall, during festival season.  

 

Anyway, it's a cool thing to see, especially when the wheel is in motion.  It only takes a trickle of water to make it turn. 

 

HAPPY SUMMER!!
