Milk Bottle
|
|
|
|
Whately, MA. Here's what www.roadsideamerica.com has to say: "There is a 17 foot high cement milk bottle on the main road in Whately. Built in the late 1920s by Lincoln Bond for the Quonquont Dairy Farm's dairy bar, the bottle once stood on Rt. 5, greeting visitors to the area. In 1995, the bottle, which is owned by the Whately Historical Society, was moved to its present site and restored. It is now situated in front of the town building, which houses the Historical Society and is used several times a year to dispense ice cream."

Pig Stand Revisited

The Pig Stand faced an uncertain future when I was last in San Antonio in 2007. Reopened under new management, it's now a motorcycle drive-in called Frank's Hog Stand. Let's ride!
