September 2012.
These shots are all from last Summer and I'm still working on them, but thought the sunshine and greenery under blue skies deserved a place of interest!This is a very facinating visit and a superb accomplishment for the time in history that it was built. We don't know how lucky we are to be living in this time of ease and safety with clean water to drink and bathe in. This sturdy and beautiful steam factory with all the buildings required for it's operation was built in the 1800's . Official opening was 1863 and I can't imagine how much labor went into the amazing creation you see here. Hope you enjoy the small glimpse .
