    Thanks for sharing. I really like the "log cabin" Kelly's Bitters bottle.
    Think I'll plan another trip back to Desoto Bend -- haven't visited the Bertrand since my newspaper days 30 years ago (wow! Just realized that ...). Had such a delightful time at the Arabia in June that am looking forward to learning more from this time capsule, too.

    Just FYI. Because of the Missouri River flooding, most if not all of the collesction is packed up and moved away from Desoto Bend. They have not given a timeline when everything will be moved back.
