How neat that two of the five known General Foods arches (out of eleven total) are right here in Ohio - and right next to each other! I was there in 1964 and well remember walking under the arches as a child. How wonderful - looks like a road trip is coming!

Injury claims compensation can be easy for everyone who all are facing these problems but for this one thing is main that you should take advice from the personal injury solicitor.

We hear lots of stories at the shop about people wanting to fish in or around quarries. It's comforting to know that with all the dangers involved, Duff Quarry and Ohio Ready Mix are very firm about the safety concerns of others staying compliant with the MSHA laws.

We just visited the light display again this evening with family and there were several cars in front of us. A great community event!

I love to see the look of the faces of customer when they actually find pyrite in their delivery. They'll call or come in so excited. It's really neat.

I've been an amateur rock hunter for many years and am always amazed at seeing how nature produces such beautiful treasures. Another reason why I love my job.

Ever since I was a kid they have been the Duff Quarry Arches! And being an employee, and understanding the struggle we have to separate the businesses, I just thought they were Jim's way of accomplishing that! It is great to know that there is a LARGE piece of the 1964 World's Fair right here!

The history of the arches is interesting to know.........I have fond memories of the amusement park (the Point as we called it!) at Russells Point, Ohio. My parents used to talk about the 'big bands' that played at the Showboat.

We often get customers who stop in looking for a unique size or blend of stone. I am always amazed at how our employees and staff pull together to try and find a way to be sure that we can serve a customer. It's a pleasure to work with such great people.

I worked here all of my life and had no idea of the complete history of the Duff Quarry arches. It is amazing that we have this local history sitting here right in our back yard. Great post, thanks for sharing.

I am really excited to see everyone. The Logan County Meetups are really a great opportunity to meet other local business and government leaders. I always walk away with meeting new people and learning something new. Excited to host this in Huntsville, Ohio.

Didn't realize these arches had so much history. This was interesting. Too bad we don't have an amusement park up at the lake anymore though.
