I had no idea there was a petrified forest in Utah and it was also supposed to be bad luck! I lived in AZ for a while and I loved the Petrified Forest but just assumed the curse was to keep thieves at bay. But, hey, but better safe than sorry! (same reason you never rob a mummy ;-)

The story sounded soo familiar but a little off. It wasn’t until you mentioned a similar curse attached to another petrified forest located in Arizona that everything clicked into place. I’m an Arizonan. I’ve heard the tales about the forest in my state, didn’t realize there was one in Utah as well with the same tales of bad luck!

You’ll never run out of story ideas living here, I guess.
