UCM Museum, Abita Springs, LA
The Abita Mystery House at the UCM Museum in Abita Springs, LA, right off of Highway 12, just across the Causeway Toll Bridge heading north out of New Orleans. Owner, Artist and musician John Prebles transformed this 100 year old Creole cottage and surrounding outbuildings and the maze of garden paths into one of the most unique museums I have even stopped to see. Only $3 to enter into the most amazing display of found, collected, built and rebuilt, painted, altered and mysterious.
The list is endless of the things you will experience: A flying saucer that crashed into a Streamline Trailer; Painted cans on a ceiling; Merman; Mini panorama of small town southern living and a replica of a Miniature Mardi Gras; 100 of paint by number paintings; Vintage Radios; Pop bottle top collection; Macaroni Marble Machine (maze); Barbwire and Beer Can Collection; Glass and Tile Shard House and Bathroom; 2 Headed Chicken and Hen Friends in NASCAR Shirts; Vintage Popcorn Boxes; Voo Doo Fortune Teller; Bassagator; Gatoruck; Duckator; Plaster cast of giant foot of Honey Island Swamp Monster; a Backyard Cave; A Hot Sauce House - filled with hundreds of Hot Sauce Bottles and a 32 Foot Alligator. This is a must see, must stop and I shall return.
