This was a bonus historical find in the back of the neighborhood right off 6A. So fascinating to see how things worked historically.

The mill was closed but this is a hidden gem to experience some of nature's reproduction processes. The mill is on one side of the street and herring are on the other. Only the strongest survive, the herring climb a series of small waterfalls to get to the pond where the lay their eggs. It a great stop for families and naturalists. Note, the seagulls are also there to get an easy meal.

The mill was unexpectedly open today, although not running (only on Saturdays). It was really cool to see all the old tech and purchase a bag of actual stone ground corn meal. The trails along the herring run were beautiful. The herring "run" in May, but it's neat to see off season as well.
