Brian came home from a 5-hour bike ride this morning, and suggested we go on a nature walk. The boys and I were just taking a break from leaf raking, and were all for it.
Fullersburg Woods is a place he rides by on a frequent basis, and it was the perfect destination on what turned out to be, a beautiful Fall day (... finally). By the time we hit
The Graue Mill, the little legs were pretty tuckered out -- plus we had Storm with. It is a
water wheel grist mill and was also part of the
Underground Railroad. They offer a tour -- we'll have to get back some day. P.S. The leaves did end up getting raked when we got home.

I've never heard of this place and thanks to your photos I totally want to go. Is it close?
Yes, it's in Oak Brook. I didn't know it existed either. It was a great day.
