edpaffjr.comLast night I finally finished watching The National Parks: America’s Best Idea series on PBS. The six-episode series, directed by Ken Burns, details the full history of the National Park Service. Though it was a bit lengthy at times, most of the old photos and updated videos were amazing to see. Some of the narration was slow, and I did fall asleep a couple of times, but watching the series made me realize how badly I’d like to see many of the various national parks in the system. By my count, I have only been to nine of the fifty-eight national parks. So I still have a long way to go in seeing all the parks, but fortunately there are some on the list that are nearby and I would love to visit those soon.

Awesome documentary! I haven’t finished it yet, but it makes me want to see more of the national parks too.
