I have actually been inside Watts Towers and was lucky enough to happen upon a tour previously scheduled that was just starting. The legacy of Simon Rodia is an inspiration to us all who live and create outside the mainstream of "acceptable" commercial activity.
The history of the Watts Towers and the story of Simon Rodia is amazing. An example to us all in how to create magnificence and wonder from nothing at all ...without money, friends, support, love, or recognition. If he can make something out of nothing...then so can you.
