Remember Ovaltine?  Is it still around?  I really don't know, but this Ovaltine factory used to be in Villa Park Illinois. 

Villa Park is a small town in Dupage county with a country feel.  It's next to Lombard, where I live now and I grew up down the street from Ovaltine smelling chocolate every single day!  It was great!

Well, that was a long long time ago and they have since converted the big old factory!  There are luxury loft like apartments there now. 

Yesterday, they blew up the smokestack and it was pretty cool.   Click on the link below to watch.
