Jan. 23, 2006 - We went to Casa Grande Ruins in Coolidge, AZ. It is a very interesting place with a lot of history. There were a few people there all looking at the buildings that have endured the test of time.
To see what I did, you have to go around from the front to the back and the doorway is in the back. I talked to some people since then, and none had taken the time to really look at the interior of this historical site, and none had seen the graffiti. If you are there, I hope that you take the time to look and see "the rest of the story". Someone researching their roots would be over the moon to discover that little piece of history. I was just about to discover the graffiti. I turned around and looked inside, glanced up to the left and there it was, scratched into the dried adobe. The discovery was a bonus for this trip. There was also a playing field for an ancient game.
All to soon our visit to Casa Grande Ruins was history, like the site. It was well worth the visit and the unexpected discovery was icing on the cake.
