Our first stop was a quick breakfast at Einstein Bagels. Then on the road to escape the golf tournament traffic.
Our second stop of the day was the Terrell General store.
At the corner of 150 and Sherrils Ford road, they serve ice cream and soda in glass bottles. They also sell penny candy and other locally made goods and some light groceries. Nice people, it is nice to see that a small business can still thrive in today's economy.
They told us about a place called Murray's Mill. About 20 min away, this is a still working mill that used to be the industrial hub of the area.
We started out at another general store, The Murray & Minges General Store. While they sell some things here, it is really the gift shop for the site. They still have much of the goods arrayed like they used to be.
Then we visited the actual mill. They still have the water wheel connected, and it is pretty cool to watch it work the machinery. You can walk around 3 floors of the mill.
They also have some nice nature trails on the property.
