  • Résumé

  • Spring Mill State Park in Mitchell, IN, offers everything a state park should -- nature, history, and culture. There's so much going on at this park, I had to make two episodes! In Part 1, you'll learn why old growth forests are important, find out what's hiding in the dark cave systems, and discover how you can explore the caves by foot or by boat. You'll also get the backstory on how an unexpected bird, the brown booby, transformed the park last year!


    Plus, you'll hear some updates on the newly renovated inn and learn about events the Friends of Spring Mill puts on every year. In Part 2, we'll spend time in the pioneer village checking out the redone grist mill and learn about astronaut Gus Grissom who grew up in Mitchell.


    If you want the Spring Mill wassail recipe, here it is!

    2 quarts apple cider

    1 1/2 cups orange juice

    3/4 cup pineapple juice

    1 Tablespoon brown sugar

    1 tsp lemon juice

    2 cinnamon sticks

    Dash of ground cloves

    Combine all ingredients, bring to a boil.

    Reduce heat. Simmer for 1 hour.

    Discard cinnamon sticks. Enjoy!


    Any mistakes are my own.
