Some chores made me arrive late to Shupp's Grove Bottle Fest. Some were packing up to go or until they set up again today but there was still plenty of glass to be seen, the weather was great, had the practically had the place to myself. Paid $4 for a couple of Bromo knockoffs and then treated myself. I can't afford to be a historical flask collector, but after digging shards of several and drooling over examples for years I picked up a maybe damaged summer tree/sheath of wheat calabash for $25 a few years ago at Shupp's Grove. I didn't used to like the form and thought they were kinda ugly (like wires but it has grown on me. A couple years ago I added a damaged Jenny Lind and this year added a good hunter/fisherman. I've always wanted one of those so now there are three. I took them out to Stonetown for a pic hoping the mojo would rub off and a whole flask will come out of that place!
