They moved the Liberty Bell yesterday. It took 4 hours and moved about 1000 ft. to it's new home in Liberty Square. It had been in Independence Hall since 1976. Great pains were taken to move the bell without causing further damage to the crack. A seismologist followed along at the slow pace to track the vibrations. The move caused no further damage and the bell now rests in it's new home.........moved for better viewing and better protection. Just thought I'd let you know!



Now.........I live about 50 miles (give or take) from that damn bell............ya think I'd have had a more personal peek at it by now, huh? Well, it's on my "things to do list"..............

Hey Ian? Wanna see a big bell with a crack in it??? LOL!
