Rocks

Harriet Baskas takes us on visit to the extraordinary rock garden that Milton Walker started in his Seattle back yard back in the 1950s. He worked on it for more than 30 years, and today it's an acknowledged national landmark. This isn't your average backyard rock garden. We're talking about massive concrete walls inlaid with semi-precious stones and glass, minature mountain ranges and lakes, and a twenty foot high tower.
