A funky place to visit, near the highway in the middle of the desert. Fine-tuned the coords a bit in Apr 2005.

This is a place where you can record your own family history in granite. The inside exhibits are only open from the day after Thanksgiving until the end of March, but you can do the cache anytime.

This unusual place was featured in the May 1991 National Geographic Magazine. Some points of interest are: The Felicity Sundial, the Ceremonial Steps, the First woman licensed pilot, and the first Mediterranean crossing in an aircraft - a Morane-Saulnier.

Answer these easy questions and email me with the answers. Do not POST the answers, thanks!
1) How many ceremonial steps are there, and where do they lead?
2) Describe the Felicity Sundial. What is it pointing to?
