Casa Grande

Have I mentioned how beautiful it's been here lately? Marty and I have driven 25 or so minutes to Coolidge more than once and not stopped at the Casa Grande National Monument. So this Saturday, we decided it was one of those days we really needed to get out of the house and that's what we did! It was SO fun! SO perfect for the kids!



By the way, the Casa Grande is a bunch of ancient Hohokam ruins (from around AD 1200) and was the nations first archaeological preserve in 1892 and the site was declared a National Monument in 1918.

















Complete with a picnic!

I'd love to go there some time but I cant get Mike convinced that it would be a fun outing.
I'm so glad you went and posted pictures of it.
