This is the Hood Milk Bottle which is located in front of the Children’s Museum in Boston. It’s a beautiful location along the Fort Point Channel overlooking the Boston skyline in the background. The structure is actually an ice cream stand and snack bar that was moved to it’s current location in 1977 from it’s original location in Taunton, MA. In terms of random facts about it… it’s 40 feet tall, 18 feet in diameter and weighs 15,000 pounds. And more importantly, if it were a real bottle. it would hold 58,620 gallons of milk. It’s interesting facts like this that draws so many viewers to my blog. That was sarcasm by the way. :)
Mmmmmm, now you made me want a big glass of cold milk and then maybe an icecream sundae!! Cool photo and loved the sarcasm
