WATER FRONT PARK IN RISING SUN

This pump is the only visible reminder of the steam-powered flour mill of Joseph W Talbott (1833 - 1902), great-great grandfather of Senator Robert Dole. It provided water for the horses of Mr Talbott's customers.  Built in the 1820's, the mill was purchased and enlarged by Mr Talbott in 1847.  Unlike many mills of the day, this one was financially successful and helped make Mr Talbott one of the leading businessmen of Rising Sun.  The mill burned down in 1889.  Parts of the foundation lie in the riverbank underneath your feet.

 

LITTLE FARM ON THE RIVER RV PARK

I spent three peaceful nights at Little Farm on the River RV Park.  The name tells it all and its location on the Indiana side of the Ohio River bank was a good choice for a place to spend in an RV.

A walk along the river bank produced some interesting and sometimes scary sights.  The mornings were on the cool side and the river bank life was not actively searching for hapless people strolling by.
