...a replica
of his partially inflated balloon (see his biography) of years back. It
eventually will be his Salvation
Mountain museum. It is constructed like his
"Hogan" using hay bales and adobe. It is so big however, that he has had to
construct "trees" to help hold it up. Leonard continues to add more
supports and more hay bales all covered with adobe all the while painting and
repainting with bright colors that his visitors bring. It will be yet another, amazing,
one-of-a-kind creation when completed.
This is a view showing some
of
the recently added detail
inside of the museum.
A year after the
filming of
Into the Wild, Sean Penn
"just happened to be in the
area" and
stopped by the mountain. Leonard holds
court just like always.
