The Industrial Revolution as an event has always fascinated me. More than 30 years ago my wife and I took a tour of the mill sites in Rhode Island organized by the Smithsonian. Yesterday, Sunday we took a drive and re-visited some of these sites along the Wood River. As you might imagine things had changed in the last thirty years and some things had not changed at all.
I am still hoping to find the photos from the first trip to show how things have changed.
