+ Let's explore some National Parks. I'm posting this as I watch Epidode 4 of Ken Burns' inspirational and informative film: THE NATIONAL PARKS: AMERICA'S BEST IDEA. Let's begin at parks I've been fortunate enough to visit here in the USA and in Canada.

SHENANDOAH NATIONAL PARK (Virginia)
I camped here on a trip with my parents and sisters in 1960.

ACADIA NATIONAL PARK (Maine)
Mary & I camped here on 2 occasions in the early 70s and then once with our children in 1991.

FUNDY NATIONAL PARK (New Brunswick, Canada)
On our way to Nova Scotia in 1972, we camped here and learned about the highest tides in the world.

CAPE BRETON HIGHLANDS NATIONAL PARK (Nova Scotia, Canada)
We reached our goal. It's a scenic gem on the Atlantic Coast of Nova Scotia.

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK (California)
We spent a couple of nights in a cabin in the incredible valley in 1976. Sharon was 22 months old.

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK (Mostly in Wyoming)
We camped in this amazing park in a 1981 trip which also brought us to ...

GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK (Wyoming)
So close to Yellowstone and so different.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK (Colorado)
This is a mountain paradise which was the climax of our 1981 trip.

GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK (Arizona) We bought a minivan in 1988 and headed West. No photo does justice to The Grand Canyon. Wow!

ZION NATIONAL PARK (Utah)
After seeing the Grand Canyon, we went up to this beautiful park.
