Alley Spring & Mill is, by far, my favorite place anywhere around here -
I could spend days exploring the grounds!
I don't want to shove the history of the place down your throats, because you're probably not as interested in it as I am...
I just want to shove the pictures at ya! =) LoL!
Wikipedia:
The scenic Alley Mill, or "Old Red Mill" is located 6 miles west of Eminence, Missouri on Hwy 106
and is part of Ozark National Scenic Riverways.
The first mill was built in 1868, but the current Alley Mill was built in 1894 & originally painted white.

These are beautiful images and I can understand why you have such a fondness for the area. The mouse over color is very cool :)

i love b&w images but the coloured photo here is just great!
I was grateful for the mouse-over colour version. So much cosier than B&W. Lovely scenes though. I can see why you like to spend time there.
What a scenic place it is indeed.
It is a beautiful place, Tricia! I cna see why you love it so. Great photos.
Belle queste foto Tricia :)
Buona domenica.
Bye Myriam
great works Tricia!
regards
Great shots! I love the mouse over - the color version is gorgeous, too, but the sepia one imparts such a powerful mood. Fantastic!
Wow Tricia, I loved the 'mouse over' one... How did you do that? I have never seen that done I don't think. NEAT!!!!!
All of the pictures are gorgeous ---and like you, we love old historical places.
Hugs,
Betsy
LOVE IT!!!! The pictures are just wonderful Tricia. I would like to explore that area too. I could stay forever--well almost. Great job. The mouse over didn't work for me but tell me how to do that. I don't have photoshop though. MB
This is a very scenic place and I can see why it's your favorite. I like the novelty of your roll over color option.
The black and white photos are done very well and you've chosen subjects that look good in that mode.
Very nice post today, Tricia!
What a pretty spot. I can see why you think it's special...and I'd be interested in the history. :)
What lovely compositions of such a pretty place! Wow!
I would love to visit there...love those kind of places. That mouse over thing is so cool! Great shots
What a great place to visit - I sure would! I love the photos in black and white too - gives it more of a vintage feel.
Amazing shots Tricia, they remind me of long walks in the local woods over here that we would go on as kids.
Love that image in sepia that changes color when the mouse is over it. Still don't know how you do it!
What a gorgeous place!!
All the B&W images are so beautiful and very sharp!!!
When compared to the old photo, trees in front of Mill is definitely growing.
Thanks for sharing.
great b&w with feeling in!

The old mill site is gorgeous and your photos are wonderful!
I love those pictures. The black & white just adds to the scene.
I was going to say this place is older than I am! Amazing it is still standing. Obviously, someone has cared for it...
You've outdone yourself today - so many beautiful photos. I like the b&w, the color and the sepia. They all work with this subject matter!
I can also see why this would be one of your favorite places...I could envision myself wandering about there for hours ... 'course I might be lost ...
You have really gotten some good pics...I don't know where to begin. I love the one that can be changed to color...I think it is my favorite but the others are not far behind.
I can see why you're captivated by this place. I love your b&w shots. They really make it look vintage! Well done. Thanks for stopping by at my blog. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
These are beautiful pictures of the mill. I like the photo that changes color when the mouse is rolled over it. And you would never bore me with the history of the places you visit.
