National Parks!
I was inspired by the thread Noa posted about hiking, especially when I brought up Acadia National Park. I figure this does count as lifestyle because visiting national parks has often been something I consider to be a part of my life. Plus, it deals with traveling to different places as well.
Anyway... Have you ever been to any of them? What ones are your favorites? If not, are there any national parks you would like to go to? Do you have a national park passport you get stamps in? I've been to a lot of them, but my favorites are Acadia National Park. The reason is because I've camped there, even before I was born. :P It is such a gorgeous looking place, and I miss those summer camping trips to Seawall campground we used to do. It's not the same camping in Arizona either. :c This is one of my passports with stamps from Acadia. I'm also a junior ranger of Acadia for both of their ranger books (things might have changed though). I have also been to the Grand Canyon at least twice. One was us driving there, and another was taking the train ride. The train ride was sooooo much fun. I was actually more interested in the train itself. That's probably because I adore them and find them to be super cute. >w< This and this are some of the stamps I have in another passport stamp book. So, what about you? I'm probably the only one who does the stamp thing lol |
I would definitely love to visit Yellowstone one of these days! However, the closest I could get to a National Park is Everglades down south of me. :3

I've been to Yosemite before.

But it's nice there, my kind of outdoors. Which is to say that it's got tents and cabins already there and you're not really getting too far from civilization. It was nice though. The sky was really clear and you could see the stars like I've never seen the stars before. |
Closest National Park to me is the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Never been there though. After playing Firewatch though, I certainly want to visit some National Parks in the future.
National Park Service turns 100 this year as well. |
I've been to Yosemite and the Grand Canyon. Oh, and the Pinnacles. (Probably some others in California when I was a kid.) The closest to me now is Carlsbad Caverns.
Might have actually been to more National Monuments, not sure what the difference is. |
