Me and the Badger made a trip to Philadelphia today to get a glimpse of the "Dyottville Glass Works" soon there will be no visible evidence that this place even existed. That is why I took plenty of pictures and made a few vid clips.

When we arrived there was a suspicious looking white van near the site,the man inside was watching the workers come and go. At first I thought it was some sort of pervert but as we got closer and the door flung opened I realized it was just Steve/sewell hahahah .[8D][8D]

All kidding aside,we met Steve at the site and had a great time. I didn't get along with Steve on the forum in the past but after meeting him in person I think he is a swell guy[;)]

The day was awesome,sunny and warm for February.
I got what I wanted, a few pictures of my flask at the Dyottville site and a brick from the section where the Eagle was blown in the 1850s (Benner & Smith) were the proprietors at that time.
I never thought I would be standing at the very place my flask was made,it was a cool feeling indeed. Now I am more attached to that bottle ever. That sounds kind of weird huh?? ohhh well what else would you expect coming form me[8D]

After we were finished at the site,we took a ride to MC Donald's to get a bite to eat and yack about ABN,bottles and things I can't really say on here [:D] Fun day 4 sure! that "BIG BREAKFAST" was the bomb!!![:D]

Ohhh yeah I almost forgot ,I know who has your 20 bucks Steve



The nice man opened the fence for us

This guy is in the pit where the canal came into the factory. It looks like he is crushing grapes.
