On our way home from making another concrete pad delivery, we stopped in Independence, Iowa to visit the Wapsipinicon Feed Mill and Dam which is now a museum.
The mill was built in 1867 by Samuel Sherwood and served the community for over 100 years. It has 6 stories, but only two of them are open to the public as a museum. From the lower floor through a small glass window you can see into the floor where the water enters the building.
