Casa Grande Ruins

Last Saturday we visited Casa Grande National Monument, taking advantage of the free National Parks day. Last year we attempted to visit the ruins, only to find the monument had closed for the evening.



We arrived at the ruins around noon, so it was very hot outside! We looked at all of the indoor exhibits and spent the rest of our time in the little bit of shade outside.

It was fun to see the large ruins up close, and also to explore the smaller ruins in the area.
