Lory and Wilma Watts purchased the old Crescent Bath House property in 1972 and operated a Antique Shop until May 2002. Mr. Watts is retired from Rockwell and collects antique cars and clocks as a hobby. Mrs. Watts is an accomplished ceramicist and takes great pleasure in collecting many of the eclectic items found at the Chimes. The Watts' have taken great pride in preserving the old Cresent Bathouse charm while allowing the accumulated antiques and collectibles to mix the old world with the unusual.
