    Virginia Mountains - Vistas, History, & Wineries

    Hey Scifan.. - don't know if you looked at the video but worth a short investment of time - the guy shows you the old way of splitting boards with the rays to make shakes - but YES, the mill is still in operation as a gristmill and products should still be available for purchase (BUT check the...

    Below is an inquiry from ChatGPT - first, your iPad can do AirPlay with the proper iPadOS which you have on the device.
