Holy Land USA

So we did it. Clancy and I took the 50-mile detour on the way up to Megan's house in Tiverton, RI and checked out the insanity that is Holy Land USA. We were only in there for about an hour since it started to rain, but it was enough to get the ambiance of the place. First off, it's WEIRD. The place is absolutely huge and empty. The huge metal cross completely dominates the skyline of Waterbury. Apparently, it even used to light up at night. The grounds are just filled with these bizzare sites that are all overgrown. At one point, we actually ran into a Tower of Babel in an area that had been overrun by forest.

Unfortunately, the thunderstorm closed down Swan Point Graveyard early, where H.P. Lovecraft is buried, so we just shambled along to Tiverton instead in Clancy's jankity crank Bug. All told though, it was ridiculously entertaining.
