A little spot in the middle of the desert dedicated to the Lord where Leonard Knight lives after landing in his hot air ballon and painting his own mountain. It was once condemned by the local authorities as a public nuisance and general eye-sore, but Barbara Boxer came to the rescue by declaring Knight's creation a work of folk art.
