Welcome to the 20th installment in the series documenting all of the historic markers in the county, via bicycle.

This is perhaps the most changed historic site. We’ve seen mills that have become roadside stops, churches, houses and a railway that has helped spawn a lively downtown community. Little is recognizable to the people who knew this spot 70 years ago.

Why? The details are here.

Enjoy, happy pedaling and happy reading!

Welcome to the 19th installment in the series documenting all of the historic markers in the county, via bicycle.

At the site of this humble little building a sign was erected 15 years ago.

One half of what the marker has to say is below. The rest is here.

Welcome to the 16th installment to the series that will ultimately document all of the historic markers in the county. I’ve been riding around on my bike to find them all and sharing them elsewhere on the site. (Clearly I planned ahead and did some of these before I got hurt.) So head on over and discover what is so significant about this railroad interchange.

(A lot, it turns out. A professor once told me that without this crosswork of iron these two towns likely wouldn’t be here.)

Enjoy, happy pedaling and happy reading!
