Still inspired by Alex Jordan, all these years on. I wonder: if he were still living today, what would The House On The Rock look like?

There are aspects of it that seem starved by the passing years. Neglected simply because no one else's mind could possibly nurture the dream that lived in his head like he could. I would so love to see what he would do with it now. What he would change or add to it in the modern age.

Also, the nostalgia that he was exploiting while building the place is so old at this point, I fear that people will begin to lose their connection with his dream. I hope it survives. I know people mostly just think it's weird, and it is. But it's also utterly human: imperfect; clunky; dirty; dusty; broken; and despite its flaws, alluring.

It still influences everything I do.
