About Me
- Camera Totin' Idiot
- In addition to Camera Totin' Idiot, my wife also calls me the Filthy Beast. Cute, huh? I also answer to Pops and any other pet names that Goody Two Shoes is using for me this week. I live with my wife and our youngest daughter in the hills of western Maryland. Our two oldest children have flown the coop. (Good thing, I was tired of waiting in line for my turn in the bathroom.)

Is that taking Steeler mania too far? Happy WW!
That's just a little bit creepy, CT.
To answer your question, logging probably comes closer than any of the options you mentioned. Those parts are (or were) the guts of an old mill that's been restored as a historic site and county park. Up until 1959, it was still a working mill turning out grain and lumber both. And if I had to guess, I'd say the pieces I shot were from the reduction gear for the sawmill. But not being an engineer, I couldn't swear to that. I put some links to other shots of the mill in a comment if you're interested in looking at the whole thing. And I'll have a My World Tuesday post coming up on it in a... I guess next week. It's scheduled for 2/2.
