My favorite place in the whole world is being on or near the water. Rivers, lakes or oceans are my happy place.

 

Fraser River @ sundown. All's quiet and calm. A time when everything loud....whispers.

Looking west from in front of Consolidated Supply on Cross St.

The sky looked the way I love, the structures just perfect for my photographic taste, the place always thrilling... what more could I ask for?

Empty space in front, emptying worries and unecessary burdens. Peace of mind seems achievable in such places.

 

Location: The lumber mill of the monastery of Iviron, Mount Athos (Agio Oros), Hellas.

Saturday evening at the Real Wood Products mill

I had a appt. with my ophthalmologist in Kingston this morning and as we drove through Parham I happened to notice that the old mill was no longer standing. A large tree had fallen on it. I knew that on the way home this would make my photo for my 365 for 2023.

 

I photographed the mill (see the first comment below) back in 2015 with my iPhone. Just 8 years later the mill is now no longer standing empty rather, it is sadly in the creek.

 

I normally don't "process images" but considering the history of this Card's Sawmill that was built in 1924, and was a major employer in Parham during the depression I thought I would give it an antique image look.

 

The mill operated until the early 1930's when some unknown party dynamited the dam. Harry Card decided not to rebuild.

The Montague Bookmill, Montague, MA, USA

(Turners Falls, where I live, is a village in the town of Montague, so, this is just a few miles from here.) It was a lumber mill in the 19th century... now used books and cafe..... on the Sawmill River... I could hang here all day... lay on the old couches, reading... go out and sit on the river... heaven !!!

Coiled cable in lumber yard on Cross St., illuminated by my headlights.

This is located in the Sierras on the edge of the town of Tuolumne, CA. The Westside Lumber Co. was located here on the Turnback Creek, but it stopped operating in the 1960's after a labor dispute and a fire that destroyed much of the property. There isn't much left of the town today, but there are still a few people living in the mountain community. I'm sure back in the day, this creek would have been full of lumber. This was an interesting location to explore while I was exploring the gold rush country in the Sierra foothills.

Happy Bench Monday! I found this cool bench on the front porch of a local lumber mill when I inquired about firewood.

St. Maries River Railroad EMD SW1200 No. 501 switches the PotlatchDeltic lumber mill at St. Maries, Idaho, on September 27, 2021. The locomotive is slowly pulling two loaded boxcars of plywood out of the covered plywood loading dock of the main building in the large complex.

The concrete structure is the remnant of an old dam, dating back to the early to mid 1800s, used for holding logs sent downriver on drives.

As you can see on the right parts of the structure is now in the creek with ice forming on it.

Despite the fact that we have switched from wooden ships to iron ships this saw mill and planing mill is still in business.

I quite liked that contrast in this shot :-)

Tonight's lunar eclipse over Bend's iconic smokestacks. The trio of towering smokestacks resides in the Old Mill district of Bend, which in the early 1900s was host to two thriving lumber mills. Two of the three stacks were built in 1922; the third was added in 1933. Today the Old Mill is an upscale shopping area with stores, restaurants, galleries, a concert amphitheater, and a river that runs through it -- the Deschutes river. Single exposure.
