The Old Mill in North Little Rock, Arkansas

This winter we went south to explore Arkansas. We stayed in the Northern parts but traveled to Little Rock for a day of sight seeing. The weather was cool but pleasant.
On the day we visited Little Rock, it was in the low 70's. Very comfortable for walking and touring.

Before we arrived in Little Rock, we made a stop at one of the more famous sights in North Little Rock: The Old Mill.

The Old Mill is a picturesque site located in one of North Little Rock's parks. It was used in the opening scene of Gone with the Wind. The park surrounding the mill has benches, trees, and blooming flowers.

The Gardens have Faux Bois (Fake Wood) Sculptures throughout. These were installed by Mexican Sculpture, Dionicio Rodruquez in 1933.
Spectacular!
