If you've heard of Longaberger, then you know they make baskets.  Not just any baskets, but the most expensive baskets you can imagine.  Sure the quality is good too -- and they look cool.  Besides that, your friends and neighbors will know you have the level of taste and financial security that only a Longaberger basket owner can have. 

Driving through Ohio on our last trip, we chose a different path (thanks to our expert logistical consultant - my brother-in-law) which took us through Dresden, Ohio.  This is not only the home of Longaberger headquarters, but the place where you'll find the largest basket in the world.  Oh yeah, central Ohio is exciting isn't it.  In the middle of nowhere - with no buildings taller than one story for literally hundreds of miles around, stands the 7 story Longaberger basket building.  It is rather ridiculous - and interesting - so we thought we'd post a couple pictures for you.

God forbid, but if you want to learn more about the Longaberger story, follow the link.
