Casa Grande Ruins? I am getting error messages everytime I try to anwer guizes. Are you getting these?

Sorry, but it's not Casa Grande Ruins. But if you were a bird dog, we'd notice that your tail is wagging and you've got your nose lifted into the wind.

Congratulations to ed-123, who just proved that it can be done. BTW, Ed, you just needed to name the national park, not a cultural or physical feature on the premises.

It's not Arches National Park. In fact, the mystery park is not in Utah.
