I have always been intrigued by things that are old. It probably stems from my childhood living in Germany and family trips taken visiting European castles and ruins.
My passion for things old met my passion for photography on a recent road trip to Brooks, Georgia. There, just off of Highway 85, stands a Georgia gem called Starr's Mill. It is a turn of the century structure and one of several mills in the state that still stand today. In those days, mills were a place of social gatherings. Grain was ground into meal as adults conversed and children swam in the creeks. In many ways, it was a simpler life. A better life. For a brief moment, I was there. I hope these pictures take you there, too. :)
