Scaffolding is set up in front of a rocky, vegetation-covered structure under bright blue skies at Disneyland, enclosed by walls with a portion of Tiana's Bayou Adventure roof visible in the foreground.

The mill received new dark brown roof shingles. Scaffolding remains around the building. Temporary planks of wood are on the seams of the roof.

The scene hints at the magic of Disneyland, possibly part of the upcoming Tiana's Bayou Adventure attraction, soon to be brought to life with splashes of green paint.

The weathervane has been installed on the mill, however. It’s located at the front point and has the same design as the one in Florida. These pieces were created by Louisiana master blacksmith Darryl Reeves and his apprentice Karina Roca.

The weathervanes are black with gold letters for north, south, east, and west. The intricate design is inspired by West African symbolism. The top resembles a fern, which represents endurance. It also incorporates a symbol representing the divinity of Mother Earth and the phrase “as above, so below,” alluding to there being more to someone or something than what you see. The bottom of the weathervane is the Sankofa, which symbolizes a bird looking back at its tail, representing looking back on your past and ancestry.
