Hotels in Rome

Our quest to seek out America’s most bizarre attractions continues as we venture East from California to Texas. Shovel in hand; we’ve dug deep to unearth these five fabulously bizarre Lone Star State attractions:

1. Beer Can House: Houston, Texas

To build a home made of 39,000 beer cans is impressive. To drink a 6 pack every day for 18 years to get those 39,000 beer cans is superhuman. But that’s exactly what late owner John Milkovisch did, drinking down some 14,000 litres of beer to build this; his aluminium dream home.

With all that alcohol in his system, you’d think the construction would be shoddy, but look closely and you’ll see that each can is placed with perfect artisan-like precision. Not one can or metal tab out of place.

Spike TV was so impressed with Jon’s work in fact; they named him “Man Of The Week” back in 2004. We doubt they could say the same about his liver.

2. Missile Base Bachelor Pad: Oplin, Texas

The Berlin wall may have long fallen, but you can still experience Cold War chic living at its best. Descend 180 feet down the winding staircases of the former Atlas missile silo and you’ll land in the subterranean home of former home renovator, Bruce Townsley (remember, you can’t knock on a missile silo; so let him know you’re coming in advance).

3. Cathedral of Junk: Austin, Texas

The old adage, one’s man junk is another man’s treasure could not be truer here. Over 20+ years, Vince Hanneman, has brought together over 60 tons of junk to create an architectural masterpiece worthy of even Frank Lloyd Wright.

A popular trend is themed camping. Campsites across the U.S. host special weekend themes such as Trick Treating, Christmas in July, Tex Mex, Survivor, to name just a few. Such clubs often create their own theme to make the experience more fun and interesting. Specialized forms of camping are available for individuals looking for more than just a relaxing weekend. Some of them are:-

• Survivalist camping

Campers carry only their boots and the will to learn the skills that are needed to survive wild nature.

• Winter camping

Going for a camp out during winter when there is snow on the ground. Adventurers adapt to forms of camping to survive freezing temperatures and limited mobility. Snow shelters are built, campers dress in layers, and low-temperature sleeping bags are used.

• Work camping

The adventurers trade labor for campsites, utilities, and additional pay.
