i got tourist trapped (on purpose)

So on the way home from the Grand Canyon, in a little town you can find . . . .

Flintstone's Bedrock City

You may think, what a tourist trap. But while we were there we saw a book for sale that Todd Oldham & Michael Graves had made on the place. So if some Target designers like it, there must be something to it right? I can see why someone would want to do a photo book on this place. It's just so strange, this dusty little town, which was pretty much abandoned when we went in. My favorite spot was the empty movie theater that played non-stop flintstones cartoons. But the beauty parlor heads were a close second.

And the goat-a-saurus! and the curtains! i could go on . . .
