Here's a picture of the mill wheel outside my grandma's house. This house wasoriginally a flour mill and was later changed into a bed and breakfast, and
finally a home. When General Washington and his troops were camped before
crossing the Delaware, he got his flour from this mill. One can still see the
wheel up on the third floor of the building.

50 Word Story:
Brush With Fame
Traveling to the area is like taking a giant leap back into history. Stone
buildings and the remainders of battlements. Markings to show where
founders traveled and replicas of their quarters and possessions present
in the land. It's wild to stand where someone so important had a long time
ago.
