Took this picture on our last trip to Wisconsin. This place used to be a feed mill, then a tavern, restaurant, closed for a while, then reopened as a restaurant in July. Its on Hwy 54 just south of Black River Falls and just north of our property. From the road, you wouldn’t even know there was a small waterfall behind the building and even when walking behind the building, at first glance you wouldn’t notice the old sluice pipe left over from the days when this old place had a waterwheel. The waterfall was neat, but this old pipe was even neater, taking on a SciFi-esque steampunk character giving hint to some post-apocalyptic world where nature is taking back.
UPDATE -Fall 2011 it is now burned to the ground!
