"Where in North America?" -- Section I

[Kestrel]

A loose clue – an uplifting experience for some.

It's the garage where Hewlett Packard was started.

[Kestrel]

Never been there, but Mesa Verde?

The ruins are in the same region, but it's not Mesa Verde.

It's the garage where Hewlett Packard was started.

Well done – that is the garage as it is today.

Silicon Valley started here: It is Addison Avenue, Palo Alto, CA.

This is the official plague at the front of the house/garage showing the birth place of HP computers and Silicon Valley in 1938.



Interestingly Steve Jobs (Apple) currently lives round the corner from this garage just over a mile away.

Just looked up where his (and Apple) start-up garage was – about 10 miles away at Los Altos. He only goes back to 1976/7.

Ansel Adams has photographed these same ruins.

Where am I standing? Name of the place.

of Border Field State Park looking south into Mexico.

But then my first two ideas about the garage were Lizzy Borden's house and the Wright Brothers' house!

Where are these ruins?

Known as the White House, because of the white-washed stone walls....

(Another example of an excellent clue...thanks!)

AZBuck

Correct! Doesn't seem like many people visit that area. It was just me and the Border Patrol.

Yeah, that's my guess too.

Yup, they are the White House Ruins in Canyon de Chelly.
