Spring Mill State Park

This photos are from Spring Mill State Park, which is located in Mitchell, Indiana. They have an active pioneer village there during the summer and it's really neat. They have a working grist mill and saw mill which gives demonstrations daily. I worked at Spring Mill for a summer and absolutely loved it!

Summer at Spring Mill 2

This is the Pioneer Village. It's a pretty fun place to be during the summer because it is an active "village." The water wheel was turned on about every hour for the public and the saw mill was turned on a couple times a day on the weekends.

I thought the leaves made a cool pattern. :)

This is Donaldson Cave...there is a wet and a dry side to it. Anybody can go in the dry side, but you have to get a special permit from the park office to go in the wet side. Unfortunately, I did not get to go in this cave, but I did go in others. I hope to go back and go through it someday. Apparently you have to swim in certain parts.

These were all taken during my internship at Spring Mill State Park in Mitchell, IN this summer. I worked mainly at night so I got out a lot during the day and went hiking or driving around. :)

This past summer I interned down at Spring Mill State Park in Mitchell, Indiana, where I got to do a raccoon population survey. I tried to take as many pictures of animals as I could!
