Ogling Gravity-Defying Rock Towers in Sausalito, California

No glue, no nails, no kidding. Balancing on a pin-head surface of craggy stone, these rock towers are patience manifest. With the crystal blue San Francisco Bay as a backdrop, walk along Sausalito's waterfront on any given day and you'll likely come across these riveting works of installation art. Created by a local street artist with steady hands and an uncanny grasp of center of gravity, if you happen to spot this rock-whisperer at work, stop for a while. Sea gulls whirl overhead, chatting tourists wander down the harbor sidewalks, and kitschy souvenir shops await while you slip into a Zen mode and find yourself forgetting about gallery-hopping and that upcoming boat expedition. Watching this magician-in-meditation place rock upon precarious rock will suddenly become the most pressing item on the day's agenda.
