The River Falls

The River Falls

Pacolet has not fallen away. It still survives in spite of the death of its mill many years ago.

We stopped near the mill and river on the way home today. I took pictures of a mural showing the mill and town, the abandoned mill, and the river. The mill houses still exist on the hills near the river, and people still live in the town. Pacolet sits near Spartanburg and is one of many many mill areas that lost its livelihood when the mills closed.
