A Time to Remember Today, at Sparks Mill, Gradyville, KY



2007-06-23 - Gradyville, Adair County, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener.
The old Sparks Feed Mill at Gradyville has been brought back to life by Bill Davenport. Today, Saturday, June 23, 2007, from 10:00am to 2:00pm, the old store and the eight acres of park-like land around here will be open for A Time to Remember. Bro. Bill, who recently retired as District Superintendent of the Columbia District of the United Methodist Church, has provenance he'll share about every item in the building, from the reworded sign on the left with his name recently painted on it, to the fact that the Royal Crown Cola sign on the right was rescued from an earlier mission obstructing a rat-hole. Artefacts abound inside the store. While it won't be a working feed store, the building is coming back to life to serve important social functions, as it did through ages of Gradyville history.
