Hullo, southwesterners. 
I'm a midwesterner who's working on a project on the USA. A3776196 is a guide to the states and some landmarks in the US. Seeing as I can't live in 50 places at once, I wondered if you fine people might have some interesting things to say about your respective states that could be included?
Little known facts, appropriate anecdotes I can use as quotes. Whatever

The cannon at Fort Douglas was originally pointed at the State Capitol. This is from when Utah was still a territory and under the control of Brigham Young. The US thought he was a threat and wanted to be able to take out the territorial government if need be.
