Place to see: Wonder Tower, Lamar, Colorado, United States

About this place:

The Wonder Tower is a 22-room extravaganza of antiques, junk, history, dusty bottles, arrowheads, animal bones, chairs, coins, postcards, paintings, cowboys and Indians. The six-story eponymous tower allows intrepid stair-climbers a view of six states (supposedly -- it's not like you can tell where Kansas ends and Nebraska begins). "Curator" Jerry has a story or an off-color joke for just about every rusty tool, weathered postcard and real-or-not dinosaur egg.
