The oldest part of this mill had a wooden roof that rotted away long ago. Slowly, rust is dulling the edge on every cog left behind.

An ajar car elevator car afar, technically.

The old crane swung on windier days over the Worthington Steam Pump. This is probably last used to disassemble the antique generators, which are all now gone.

Near the base of the mesa is a modern house, which seems to be a ranch of some sort. What a fantastic spot to live, but for the fact every rainstorm floods the arryos, muddy ditches at the bottom of gullies, making it impossible to travel.

My first picture at Nopeming, sometime around 2004. The same year that the county stopped mowing the lawn.

Regauging is the process wherein barrels are opened and the whiskey is tested in various ways, especially in its alcohol content.
