The Old Dowlin Mill New Mexico

Traveling the United States through vintage postcards is always fun. We are in New Mexico today.

The Old Dowlin Mill

At Ruidosa, New Mexico, is about

100 years old. The 20 ft high

wheel is still turned by water

during the summer months and and

corn and wheat are ground on flint stones

inside the building. " Billy the kid"

and General Pershing were some of its more

colorful visitors.
