I’m back. My brother and I spent a long weekend visiting my daughter in Minneapolis. I tried updating the blog using an Apple laptop, but the software had a major problem being updated by this particular laptop. Today, the weekend blog entries are back.
While in Minneapolis, we visited the Mill City Museum, near the Stone Arch Bridge, and found it very interesting.
Beginning in 1880 and for 50 years thereafter, Minneapolis was known as the “Flour Milling Capital of the World.” At the industry’s peak, the Washburn A Mill was the most technologically advanced and the largest in the world. At peak production, it ground enough flour to make 12 million loaves of bread in a day.
