Icon24 A treasure trove of trash withers in Simi Valley

Grandma Prisbrey's Bottle Village in Simi Valley is a place of many mysteries, but one story holds that it was created largely out of thousands of beer containers to remind the founder's husband how much he drank.

I drove by that place almost every day when I was growing up since it's on a main road. When I was a kid I begged to go on a tour but my parents never looked into how to make that happen (not fans I guess). It's such an odd place. It's great!
