Yeah, I did. Oh, so cool. Glad you put it up for others to see.

Yeah, lots of cutlery history there. As you know, Kimberly Champlin was traveling with me the day we visited the factory. She made the comment that it felt very interesting to be walking the same grounds that 3 generations of her grandfathers had walked and worked every day for many years. Lots of family history there for her, lots of mixed feelings too.

I saw your post on ET that talked about your finding the factory as well as JBF Champlin's headstone while you were checking out LV.

Thanks for the comment, did you check out the link?

Yeah...some history! I told you I stumbled up on this building while driving around LV. I was shocked. It was just sitting out there by itself. I felt like running up to it and just sitting there for a few days. Thanks!
