Deep River County Park by Rick A THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 26, Number 30 Thursday, August 5, 2010 Deep River County Park by Rick A. Richards “That’s what drew me to the park in the fi rst place,” said Shearer, “and I’ve been here since 1981.” The park, which straddles U.S. 30, includes Deep River Water Park on the south side of the four-lane highway, and the historic grist mill on the north side of the highway. It is one of 12 parks operated by Lake County. Sandy Basala, director of the Lake County Parks Department, said Deep River is one of her favorite parks in the system. “It’s so varied and it permits people to do so many things,” said Basala. “The trails are beautiful, there is a picnic area and a little playground,” she said. “I’m sure it’s true that people see things when they drive by, but you don’t understand how much else there is here unless you stop and get out of the car and take a look.” This is the view of the grist mill at Deep River County Park from Old Lincoln Highway. (Photo by Rick A. Richards) Deep River Continued on Page 2 Northwest Indiana was a very different place in 1835. It was wild, mostly unsettled, and for some- one with the right vision, a place to make money. John Wood of Massachusetts was such a vision- ary. Leaving his family behind, he ventured west, looking for a place to establish a grist mill, and he found it along the Deep River in Lake County, Ind., just south of present day Hobart. That land, a 10- mile strip across the northern part of the state, be- came available thanks to a treaty between the Unit- ed States and the Potawatomi Indians. All Wood had to do to claim his land was build a log cabin and then travel 30 miles east to LaPorte and pay $200 for his parcel of 160 acres of land. In 1837, after returning to Massachusetts to col- lect his family, Wood returned and built a saw mill to cut the lumber for his grist mill. By 1838, his grist mill was up and running, creating what was the fi rst industry in Northwest Indiana. Joanna Shearer absolutely loves the grist mill and its history. A historical programmer for the Lake County Parks Department, which operates the 1,080-acre park, said she loves the serenity of Deep River County Park near Hobart has hiking trails, some of which the park. offer this view of the rear of the grist mill.

A short walk over to the grist mill shows how corn was ground into fl our. While the mill building has been restored and the huge grinding stones in use are of the period, they are not the original stones used at Deep River. Shearer pointed out that after Wood’s sons sold out to other buyers, the grist mill closed in 1930. The building sat vacant until 1975 when Lake County acquired it. But in those 45 years, nature and vandals had taken a big toll. “When Lake County got it, the roof was gone, the windows were gone,” said Shearer, adding that the grinding stones had been chipped and cracked by vandals. “There was graffi ti in here and raccoons were living inside.” Restoration thus far has included a new roof, new fl ooring, new windows, a new stairway, and fi nding Visitors to Deep River County Park’s grist mill will be greeted by volunteers in period clothing.

Richards) “When farmers brought in their grain to be ground, it would take half a day, so they would visit those other stores while they were waiting.” The grist mill owner would keep 20 percent of the ground grain as payment for the work, and then sell that to in-town customers for cash. It is a way of life that has long since disappeared in Indiana, but Shearer and Gunnerson said they are glad to bring it to life for visitors. “I enjoy demonstrating the grinding of the corn. I think people really appreciate seeing the corn being ground,” said Gunnerson. As he operates the huge grinding wheels and monitors the fl ow of grain into the mill, Gunnerson said he is most often asked about the stones. “I talk about the weight of the stones and how it takes all that weight to grind the corn.

  • The Lincoln Mark VII, a Lincoln Like No Other
    Volume 19 Issue 9 September 1, 2019 The Lincoln Mark VII, a Lincoln like no other... The Mark VII was not fully appreciated by traditional Lincoln buyers For this month’s feature article, we opened up the archives and pulled out a delightful story about the Lincoln Mark VII, written by Tim Howley for the July-August 2001 issue of Continen- tal Comments. In my opinion, the Mark VIIs were undervalued by consumers when they first ap- peared in showrooms as new cars and have been continued to be undervalued by Lincoln collec- tors today. Perhaps it was because the Mark VII was such a sea change from the previous Marks. Welcome to the In no way did they resemble the Marks of the past, and this must have turned off potential buyers of what was a very fine car. Lincolns are and have always been unique cars. They have to be Northstar News, the driven for a while to be fully appreciated. That has applied to the Lincolns of yore as much as the monthly publication of new Lincolns of today. The Mark VII was a very fine car and it did win me over to the brand. the Northstar Region Enjoy the story, another fine one by our esteemed Tim Howley. The last time we devoted an issue to the Continental Mark VII was Continental Comments of the Lincoln and #153, Third Quarter, 1983. This was at the time of the car's introduction as a 1984 model in late Continental Owners 1983. At the time, the late Walt Rhea was President of LCOC.

    Ford Thunderbird Ford Thunderbird Fabricante Ford Motor Company 1955 - 1997 2002 - 2005 Período 2012 - Segmento F Tipo El Ford Thunderbird es un automóvil de lujo del segmento F fabricado en los Estados Unidos por la Ford Motor Company. El nombre del Ford Thunderbird proviene del folklore nativo americano de Arizona y Nuevo México. Cuenta la mitología que el Thunderbird (Pájaro del trueno) gobernaba en el cielo y era el ayudante divino del hombre. Sus grandes alas batientes, invisibles para los mortales, originaban los vientos y los truenos, dando lugar a las tormentas del desierto que proporcionaban a los indios estadounidenses el agua para seguir viviendo en la sequedad en la que les había situado el destino en América del Norte. La idea era llamar al Thunderbird Fairlane, pero se consideraron muchas otras opciones; por ejemplo, aun cuando Lewis D. Crusoe se inclinó por el nombre alternativo de Savile, fue él quién convocó a un concurso entre los empleados de Ford Motor Company para sugerir un nombre. El ganador recibiría un premio de USD $250. Alden "Gib" Giberson, un estilista nativo del suroeste, sugirió el nombre de "Thunderbird".

    1993 mustang The third-generation Mustang was produced by Ford from until It evolved through a number of sub-models, trim levels, and drivetrain combinations during its production life. It underwent updates for , and for a time seemed destined for replacement with a front-wheel drive Mazda platform. However, company executives were swayed by consumer opinion and the rear-wheel drive Mustang stayed, while the front wheel drive version was renamed the Ford Probe. Enthusiasts group the generation into two segments: the — cars, with their quad headlight arrangement, and the — cars, with their aerodynamic composite headlamps and front fascia styling. Production ended with the introduction of the fourth-generation Mustang SN for the model year. The model year Mustang was based on the Fox platform. This chassis was "Ford's initiative to build a one-size-fits-all car to serve as a two-door sports car and a four-door family car" with its initial use by the larger Ford Fairmont and Mercury Zephyr twins that debuted in the model year. Two trim levels were available: the base model and the more luxurious Ghia model. The Cobra appearance package also made its debut in and would continue through both the and model years. The Cobra 17, produced featured black grille, trim and moldings with the exception of the sail panels which were painted body color , as well as black lower body paint. The door handles, door locks, antenna, and roof drip rail were bright. Color-coordinated dual pinstripes in the wraparound body-side moldings and bumpers, as well as COBRA decals on the doors were standard.
