    If you want to see some antiquity in the US of A, there's always Mesa Verde, Chaco Culture National Historical Park or Canyon de Chelly. Many of those ruins were built over a thousand years ago. You can tour the great houses in several of these places. They are stunning.

    Ancient stonework always amazes me, be it Scottish castles, Puebloan ruins or ancient Middle Eastern cities.

    Wonderful castle tours C2T!

    That is one imposing looking castle. I'd certainly think twice before trying to lay siege to that one. Thanks for the pix!

    Great pics! i love Border history. Everyone should be required by law to read "The Steel Bonnets" by George MacDonald Fraser...it's just that exciting.
