Located at the east end of the Low Level Road , Milling Time pays homage to the historic logging settlement of Moodyville that once thrived in that location. Incorporated within the three panel design are a variety of saw blades with the antique crosscut saw blade echoing the repeat pattern of the railroad ties below the site, and the circular motif of the saw blades reinforcing the idea of things moving and turning like the wheels of nearby trains, trucks, cars and bikes. For some, the design may be interpreted as the intricate workings of a clock bringing to mind the passage of time.
