Here we go.

Summer is upon us.  And for those of us in the Midwest, it's nature's invitation to GO.

Being budget savvy and conscious is a reason we are here.  So this summer, if you only plan one thing on a shoestring, check out America's National Parks.

National Parks are free to enter on designated days, and low cost daily, with a variety of activities at each one.  They open our eyes to the natural beauty of the world while giving you a glimpse into history.

And that is why we are highlighting them.  America is a country you can take for granted fairly easily.  The vast amount of space here still undeveloped and protected provides America with a landscape of wonder.  Long before tires, trains, and tik tok, the terrain of America was explored through trekking woods and forging rivers.  If you've never taken the time to see these areas and imagine what it was like before modern technology, there's just one word to describe the development of this country.

Hard.

The difficulty those that came before us to settle and develop America into the country it is today is lost in the sea of modern cities, freeways, and ease of access.  

​Take time to recognize America the Beautiful.  Don't take her for granted.  Find a National Park near you and explore the preservation of the great outdoors. 

And as an added bonus, the National Parks sells a Passport to the Parks.  For the cost of the Passport, you receive information on the parks, can add stickers, and every time you visit you stamp the date.
