Grist Mill, Weston , Vermont beyond postcard from the past

I'm sure that if you've followed my blog by now, you know how much I love to visit offbeat places. When it comes to offbeat places, Vermont immediately comes to mind. No matter how many times I visited, I still felt wanderlust. Visiting Vermont in the fall has its charm. The little rustic towns accentuate fall aesthetics and beauty, not just for your eyes but also for your soul. I often wonder and find it intriguing how these places maintain their beauty and tranquility in a time of scientific and technological advancement, when the rest of the world is in constant motion.  Here I was in a little piece of heaven called Weston. A little town was not so little when it came to its charm and beauty.

This lovely little place, which adds aura and allure, is called the Grist Mill, built in 1780 and originally constructed as a lumber mill. Engulfed on the bank of West River, the mill is a sight to behold with the serene surroundings and tranquility of trees, a waterfall, and a tiny creek. If you love to take photographs, spend quiet time in serenity, or wander around to explore the history of early American technology, this is the perfect place for you.
