Wacky places to visit in Colorado part 1

Bishops Castle, San Isabel National Forest:

Every year since 1969, Bishop has single-handedly gathered and set over 1000 tons of rock to create this stone and iron fortress in the middle of nowhere. Bishop calls it "a monument to hardworking people" and "America's biggest, one-man, physical project." "I always wanted a castle." -Roadsideamerica.com

Actually, to this day no one has ever been hurt at the castle.
