House on the Rock

...I don't know where to begin. Alex Jordan designed this 14 room house which was built into Deer Shelter Rock in the Wyoming Valley.

I think our high light to this house was the infinity room. It is cantilevered out over the valley. there are hundreds of small windows so you can see everything. I can't tell you how long it was but it felt like 5000 feet straight out over air. As you walk further out it gets smaller and smaller until it disappears. Almost at the very end there where you can still stand there is a window in the floor so you could look down 125 feet. "Whoa Dizzy".

I can't stop there this was a three tour event. The house, with low ceilings, red furnishings, rocks as walls, and automated instruments playing music. The museum there was everything from snuff to doll houses, and the carousel with 20,000 lights and not one horse has a horse head. The organ room had hundreds of different organs from the giant ones in churches to regular ones. The sea creature which he had built has to be three storied high. The whole time over and over there were automation instruments set up to play music, flutes, Violins, Cello's, Jugs, drums, I even saw a harp. Does anyone remember the Herbie Hancock video? It was fun, bizarre, creepy, funny, eclectic, and weird. check out the website photo gallery to see some of the bizarre stuff in the house. http://www.thehouseontherock.com/.
