I'm sure you can see it among its friends:

So the other day, I and my parent went to Wyoming, Michigan (part of Grand Rapids metro area), to tour a college I was very interested in (and have since applied to because the Lord has made it clear that this is the one). Afterward, we went to antique stores set in an old furniture factory where I didn't find much of interest (and affordability) outside of a book and this bottle from Toledo, Ohio.

While my camera doesn't want to capture the colour it is (for it is more like honey than amber), in the light it turns a brilliant yellow-honey.

The day's weather degraded, and the stores closed at 3 O'Clock. So, we went home with not much to show (mom found several ornaments that she liked).

(For taking it through glass while the car was in motion, I think I did okay for centring the flag).

Skiing, anyone?

Under white light, unedited.

My photos of its mould repair didn't turn out well, but it is along the left side and adds nice character.

Otherwise, it's your normal Pre-Pro tooled top beer bottle.

Thank you, Jim. You should see the picnic table. It's a good judge of snowfall, and it has over a foot on it. LOL.

Jim, we've had a similar issue. Slush now.
We use our picnic table to gauge the snowfall.

This was before our last fall, which has melted anyway. While not an excessive amount, for only 4 falls' accumulation it was decent.

Sandchip, thank you. :)
