The Nicoll Grist Mill at Connetquot River State Park Preserve was restored to working order after being dormant for more than a century. John Remmer, a lifetime Oakdale resident, has devoted himself to the mill for the past two years, showing up sometimes five days a week to restore its long-dilapidated interior.  Credit: Andrew Theodorakis
