Time Flies but I haven't

 It's amazing how the last year has flown by and I have not posted a single blog. So much has changed and since my last post, I've taken some really neat trips and was planning for another...until March and COVID hit. Now I wonder when I will get to set foot onto a plane or set out on a journey to explore a new destination.


Last summer I was able to journey to my fourth Epic Road Trip, this time it was a drive through Utah and I visited 3 National Parks. Crazy enough, that only whetted my appetite to see more National Parks and ended up seeing 2 more National Parks later in the year tipping my total count of National Park visits to 12. (I won't count each park visit more than once as living in Arizona, I've been to the Grand Canyon multiple times. I'll only count that once).

So far in my life I've seen:

  1. Arches National Park
  2. Bryce Canyon National Park
  3. Canyonlands National Park
  4. Grand Canyon National Park
  5. Joshua Tree National Park
  6. Gateway Arch National Park
  7. Mount Rainier National Park
  8. Niagara Falls National Park (Canadian side so not sure I should count it)
  9. Petrified Forest National Park
  10. Yellowstone National Park
  11. Yosemite National Park
  12. Zion National Park
Next on my list? I'm not sure. I have my eye on visiting Niagara Falls on the American side and exploring. There is so much in the area to see and going to Michigan, Ontario, and Niagara Falls just sounds like it would be worthy of my next Epic Road Trip.

Until I can travel again. I'll have to start visiting some of the places I've been in memory and perhaps share with you some of those interesting, fun, and unique experiences of past trips. Including the four I took from last July to earlier this year when the world came to a stop.
