Little white Erigeron flowers overflowing its designated garden bed and onto the brick path at Urrbrae House.
From a recent trip to Great Meadows in Concord. The trail was quite literally "under water" :) Fortunately, I brought my good waterproof boots and it was OK to pass. Reflections in the melting ice pools were quite fascinating.
Have a great weekend all!

Mingus Mill was the largest, most advanced and most powerful mill in the Smoky Mountains of its time. Using a steel turbine and a 22 ft tall penstock, the mill generated approximately 11 horsepower - enough to run all the equipment in the mill.
When there is an excess of water to fill the penstock and keep the constant pressure on the turbine, the water overflows from this point on the Flume, creating a waterfall of sorts, that then flows back into the Mingus Creek.
