Hmm..when was the last time I was at a National Park? Oh, I remember about 4 months ago I went with a couple of friends to Crater Lake National Park in southern Oregon. It was gorgeous, a beautiful sunny day and we had a picnic. For reasons I don't recall, we only stayed about 20 minutes (even though it took over four hours of driving and a sketchy overnight in Grant's Pass to get there) before turning around to head to the coast. On our way down Hwy 62 toward Medford a close call to a head on collision resulted in one busted door and a flipped car with the driver trapped inside. Fortunately, we were the ones with the busted door. Maybe it was the universe telling us we should have stayed and enjoyed the sights..but for what its worth, if you visit a national park, stay to appreciate it.
Here's a list forwarded by a friend of 10 cool NP
to visit across the U.S. Happy travels.
