National Parks Anniversary

Submitted by ub on

Which is your favorite national park? The two parks which come to mind because they hold a special place in my heart are Everglades and Yosemite.

The people of this great nation are enjoying 100 years of clean, beautiful parks. It's the centennial celebration of the National Park Service.
