I grew up with very humble roots. I was surprised to learn that White's Mill still exists. It must be on a historic registry or something for it to still be around. I recall when I was a kid, us going to Whites Mill to buy flour and meal. I was mesmerized by the water wheel. I'd watch the wheel turn and turn as the water from a feeder stream would fill up each compartment so quickly as to keep the wheel turning at a continual pace. Inside I recall the outside wheel turning the gears that in unison turn the grist used to grind the grain and make the flour. To me a 10 year old kid, I found it simply fascinating!
