This past week, my parents came down for a visit and to attend the Grandparents Valentine's Day celebration at Wesley's preschool. They left early yesterday morning and the house felt so empty without them I knew the kids and I wouldn't be able to be home all day. So, spur of the moment, we headed south to Coolidge, AZ and Casa Grande Ruins National Monument.
The drive wasn't bad and I was surprised how many people were at this kinds of small and sort of out of the way place. We explored the visitor center, watched the park film, and wandered around the ruins.
We found a 'secret room' that the kids thought was pretty cool. The entrance was perfect sized for Lauren and Wesley.
We had a picnic lunch while we were there, got a post card, and headed home. It was a perfect day trip.
