a bridge, built from embalming fluid bottles

Our first stop was a roadside attraction called The Glass House. It was a house and landscaping build by a retired mortician, out of 600,000 empty embalming fluid bottles. It has, to date, been our most expensive tourist trap, at $25 for the whole family. But it was kind of cool - it was built in the 50’s, and while the owner was alive, he gave tours himself and did magic tricks for the kids who visited.
