Why I'm blogging

I'm going to be posting about my travels through national and state parks in the US. I'm trying to get to visit all of the national parks in the continental US. There are quite a few national parks in Alaska, and many of them are really expensive to visit even after you get up to Anchorage or Fairbanks. There is also a national park in American Samoa, which is in the South Pacific. Another national park is in the Virgin Islands, which are a little closer to where I live (Austin,Texas).

I'm currently planning to visit Congaree National Park in South Carolina, the three Florida national parks, and maybe some repeat visits to Guadalupe and Big Bend National Parks in Texas this winter. A lot of the other parks are snowed in or difficult to visit in the winter.
