Day 157...

So last day in the Dells.  We spent a fairly quiet day.  We went fishing again, or should
I say Jessie went fishing again while I read a book.  Then we picked up our trout that we had caught the day before, and headed for home.  Along the way, we stopped at The House on the Rock.  A family friend went years ago and always talked about how cool it was.  Jessie and I found it to be quite creepy.  But it did have a few cool things.  One of those is the Infinity room.  This room would make anyone be scared of heights.  It is 218 feet long and extends out of the house 156 feet above the forest floor. There are no support poles holding it up and it shakes when you walk out in it.  Amazing views though and they have a little window cut into the floor to let you look down.  That is what today's picture is.  Below are two pictures from http://www.thehouseontherock.com/ that show a good outside view of the room.  Truly amazing.  The middle picture shows most of the 3,264 windows.

  1. We thought the House on the Rock was quite creepy too. Definitely a place worth seeing but, what a very odd man, to think of such things. I am glad that you were able to get away, you lucky ducks!
